Mike centers this ride on stability and balance, holding steady power through four count pulses, twenty second breakaways, and one minute presses. Staying centered keeps you riding harder and more efficiently.

Because of the typically heavy framework of an indoor cycling bike, riders seldom need to focus on balance. This ride is about stability and balance. Designed, in part, for our SSoD members who use Stationary Trainers, we are riding with the intention of maintaining steady, consistent power as we alternate foot speeds. Whether we are doing 4-count pulses, 20 second breakaways, or one minute presses, staying centered and concentrating on symmetrical push/pull foot strokes will allow you to ride harder and more efficiently. 95% of this ride is in the saddle, so get comfortable and let's crush this route.   Mike

    It felt like a lot of climbing ⛰️ the 4 and 8 count speed drill was really fun and so challenging with enough enough gear. Great class!
