Where Are You Going?

At about 15 minutes to go I see some of our riders start to exit presumably for “Barre Burn” or Yoga or an appointment they have scheduled.  Yesterday Kristen was vociferous wanting to know where they were going. 

Too embarrassing for me to unclip and I don’t have the heart to leave early either.    I am not into Yoga yet or Barre Burn and my schedule is mostly my own. But to exit early is like walking out in the middle of the second act of the play we couldn’t wait to see. 

I wonder if we really take into account that Kristen is unique in that she is a performance artist in every sense of the word. When we walk out on her she takes it very seriously and because she takes such pride in her work and in us we need to consider not only how she feels about it but also how deep is our commitment to the training we do with her is.  This past Friday she called it “Entertrainment” and indeed it is. So let’s keep that in mind before we leave before the second act is complete.  Have a heart. Just my opinion mind you, but what do you have to say about it? Please weigh in.

  1. Hello-

    My name is Frank, and I'm writing from Global Ride Productions (www.globalride.net). We make virtual cycling training DVDs for indoor cycling. As a cycling blogger, we thought you might be interested in writing a review of our product. We are willing to send you one of our Italy DVDs, something we sell on our site for $30 plus shipping, in exchange for you writing a review. You don't have to send the DVD back – it’s our thank you for helping spread the word about a new approach to training.

    Our virtual cycling DVDs are different from any others you may have tried. We travel to a new country every year, have multiple coaching tracks on every DVD, licensed music, and bonus yoga, pilates or strength training sessions designed for cyclists at the end of every ride. They're a great product and we just want to spread the word.

    Also, If you are interested in coaching one of these for an upcoming project, please let us know as well. We are always looking for new voice/coaching talent – the main ingredients are cycling knowledge, enthusiasm and a decent microphone setup. In exchange for coaching, we give you super exposure on our website, in the credits, and even in the navigation menu of the DVD itself.

    If you'd like to do a review, or be considered for coaching, just shoot me back a message with a mailing address and we can discuss it.

    Please drop me a line if you want the DVD.

    Thanks!

    Frank

    Looking forward to receiving your DVD. We have a great coach right here in our midst, we think she is the best in the country. We should talk via the coin box.
