My daughter has a Peloton which she and her boyfriend rave about. I have had a go but I am a bit too old I think!

I know that this thread is old, but I will reply. With my exercise bike I use YouTube. I pull my bike up to the TV, and there are loads of videos from local to me, and many places from around the world. Most done via helmet cams.
I Recently had a knee replacement, and can only use my indoor bike at the moment. Soon very soon I hope to be able to use my Brompton out doors.
Did I say, I am 84.

I do indoor cycling and watch TV. I enjoy being on the road much more but where I live it cold and winter. NYC

I bought a peloton bike then moved to Zwift. I really like Zwift. I now ride regularly with friend from all parts of the country. So health, social and guilt free wine.
