Not so much for the community, but I have to admit that it has been good for me since December for my own accountability and ensuring I do something every day while we continue to live in a pandemic world.
I know some of you are out there...trainers? Playlists? Power Zone?
There’s a 45 minute 90s rock ride that comes up if you search “Pearl Jam” instructed by Christine D’ercole wherein she announces she’s filled her playlist with 90s rock classics, and they all ended being Pearl Jam songs. It was a fun ride.

If you’re not using Cody Rigsby, you’re doing it wrong.

I say on a bike is cool. I once took a Cody Rigsby cool down ride. That was that.
I usually stick to Power Zone rides but I have done a few of the artist series (The Beatles, Grateful Dead, and a few others), and hit up some classic rock rides. The 45 minute Metallica ride was the most challenging bike ride I have ever done - it was mostly focused on 1982-1989.
I have also ran a few of their guided outdoor runs, which are good to mix things up rather than running at my usual pace.

Their commercials are really annoying. I almost never use the trainers that are in the commercials weirdly - though given my taste in music it’s no surprise those trainers are mostly in their 40s and 50s.

Haven't gotten on the Peloton craze yet but ive had this bike for 3 years now:
Don't need anything else. Turn on my own music, my own stop watch, have my own workouts, and I save $$$$$
Though I do wonder if i'd do it even more with a peloton due to the community aspect of it and having a teacher tell me what to do. Spice things up etc...

I have a similar one, strat and I never use it. Even with music or the TV on it's just too boring. I can bike for ages outside without getting bored, but indoors I can't do more than a couple of miles.

Sure, but I only use it for intense workouts. 20-45 minutes of high intensity is perfect. In and out for those days i dont have time to go outside for a couple of hours of hiking

Opening with Pendulum is a bad idea
Opening with Go or STBC is an even worse idea.

Jen Sherman is really the only instructor that plays PJ with any regularity.
She’s also the oldest instructor.

Christine D’ercole and Matt Wilpers play them here and there.

I would be impressed if she based her playlist off the setlist generator. But I am guessing Small Town.
