I have ridden with a number of the people in these classes and know full well that on real bikes they wouldn’t keep up with me for an hour but on spin bikes I was useless. Go figure?
On a spin bike how do you know how your riding compares to someone else? All you have is that resistance knob that you cannot typically see on other bikes (plus cadence, of course). How do you make that judgement?
