Space and Time

Kristen eluded to the fact that we were a “team” today in this a very rainy Saturday edition of KSC. She reasoned that because all of our bikes are so close together that we exchange a free flowing energy with each other. All the members of “The Team” are watching us and that is one reason why we give the effort we give. Kristen must know because although we are usually only focused on one set of eyes, hers she is seeing 110 eyes on those 55 bikes staring back at her. 

Now I think we happen to be so close together because it’s what the Fire Marshall will allow in what is virtually always a SRO Kristen’s Spin Class.  (SRO: Sitting Room Only)

But on the abstract or metaphysical level spin class at our EQ is more like a community of friends that may only know each other in a cursory way but nonetheless we share each other’s aura and that is a deeply personal exchange probably only possible because of  our instructor Kristen James and also  in large part to the type of members we enjoy in Woodbury.  

Sit next to Stacy Sable or any number of the plethora of riders that have a drive reserved only for dedicated athletes and you will find out exactly what I mean. And if you are a devotee of KSC you know and have experienced this phenomenon.  

We have limited space in the absolute in one of the largest spin studios on Long Island or anywhere else for that matter. Just try to move around before or after class off the Schwinn and you’ll know I speak the truth.   Maybe though Evil Woman has something there when she talks about our proximity and what we share with one another and in truth I wouldn’t want it any other way. And as far as time is concerned the minutes continue to fly by as if the minute hand was on speed attached to an interval linked to the upper reaches of 120 RPM’s on our consoles.  From the beginning for this rider it was a challenge to make it mentally through a whole hour and although it is even more challenging now than it was nearly two years ago I am never glad our time is through but it does set the day and readies me for the challenges of life on life’s terms.  

Space and time limited commodities in our lives and the same holds through of KSC.
