The Indoor Cycling Bike – An Excellent Workout Option For New England Winters
New England weather is, to put it mildly, very unpredictable. Let’s take the past week – we had temperatures in the 50’s, 30’s, and close to zero degrees. If you are an avid cyclist who loves riding year round, winter can reek havoc on your cycling plans. This is why indoor cycling bikes have become of one of the most popular forms of exercise. I have owned an indoor cycling bike for about 15 years and have used it for cardio, rehabilitation, and overall fitness.
An indoor cycling bike has several body size adjustments to help fit anyone from roughly 4 feet tall to almost 7 feet tall. They have weighted flywheels which help to simulate riding a bike outside. Each bike has some type of resistance – brake, felt pad, magnetic resistance – to give you the option to increase the intensity of your workout. Here are some of the main features of an indoor cycling bike:
-
Handlebar adjustment
-
Saddle height adjustment up and down
-
Weighted flywheel makes you feel like riding outside
-
Braking systems allows you to change intensity
-
Transport wheels for easy mobility
-
Bike pedals on most bikes, some have clips similar to road bikes
-
Steel frame construction for heavy use and high durability
-
Compact, smaller than a standard size road bike
I use my indoor cycling bike in front of the TV to watch football or the evening news. It is one of the most dependable pieces of equipment in the fitness equipment industry. There are no consoles or electronics or plugs. There are adjustments for seat height, saddle depth (distance from the seat to the handlebars), and handlebar height. Indoor cycling bikes are relatively quiet and relatively maintenance free. The indoor cycling bike makes a great addition to a existing home fitness setup or can be the primary piece of equipment in a smaller space like an apartment.

The RIBBE is The Rhode Island Baseball Experience. It is promoting the game of baseball here in the great state of Rhode Island for the entire baseball world to see. The RIBBE is positive stories, photos, videos, and responsible social media posts. The RIBBE is an information resource for families looking for an AAU team or a summer camp or a great place to buy a first baseman’s mitt. The RIBBE is a network of coaches, tournament directors, parents, leagues, and baseball junkies whose passion of the game of baseball is unquestioned. I believe that providing expert analysis, information and directions to ballfields, and coaching advice from some of the top RI baseball minds will help promote the game of baseball here in RI to a whole new level.
