I hate that I now have to press "Start" THREE times before my ride begins. I appreciate the live session option, but, for those of us who primarily use on demand, it feels like too many steps until you start.

Some instructors love to tell the same story over and over again. For example, Robin (god love her!) can’t stop telling her engagement story. SHE WAS RUNNING A MARATHON AND JUST WANTED TO FINISH THE RACE, DREW! Or Kendall… Oh, Kendall. I swear, we all know three things to be true about Kendall. 1) She’s from California. 2) Her house growing up had a pool. 3) You could only get into the pool AFTER her mom played BELIEVE by Cher. The pool was officially open then. (Kendall, please stop playing Believe and while we’re at it… The Thong Song.)

I love all of the instructors but sometimes I’m just like, YEAH WE KNOW. WE ALL KNOW THIS STORY. I think when you have a community as committed as Peloton-ers, you have to assume they’re riding with you A LOT. No one is just dropping in for a ride every other month. (Well, maybe people are, but I’d say the majority of riders are pretty consistent?)

I make this point, because I just think they need to assume we know the stories already!

What are some other stories instructors LOVE to tell on repeat? We get some Ibiza mentions from Ben rather often… but it’s not annoying. It’s just… so Euro LOL. I’ll probably never tire of Cody’s stories about his younger days, — he also does a good job with variety.

By the way, did you know Kendall was from California?

Worst for me is "smooth like peanut butter, the affordable kind" - Ally Love (so cringe!)

Best for me is "It’s always a great day to have a great day" - Tunde (I have this on the wall opposite my bike!) but I also love everything that comes out of Cody's mouth.

I like to consider myself an equal opportunity peloton rider. I have my FAVS but try to mix in just about everyone. However, I was originally just not into Jenn Sherman and couldn’t even think about taking her classes. Then I saw a 60 min pop ride with an amazing playlist so I took it and I’ve completely done a 180 — I love her! she’s tough she doesn’t edit herself and she seems to really care and connect with the riders.

So I’m curious, who is someone you originally wrote off and have come around to? And what’s your pitch for them?

Cody is my favorite instructor and I would take every ride with him if I could. But I feel like he's always on vacation and his classes are less frequent. I feel like I go to look at new classes on demand and it's just poor Denis, workin his butt off trying to support the PeloFam with new content. Anyone else notice this?

I love a lot of the instructors on Peloton, but there's something about Sam Yo that really just makes me so happy. I think it's his gentle smile... there will be a moment of silence and he'll just smile at you and you feel it deep in your soul. He's encouraging, pushes you, and never raises his voice above a whisper. I feel like he's not always seen as one of the MAIN instructors, but I urge everyone... give yourself a Yes Yo! His most recent Pop Ride is a great place to start!

Has anyone skipped a ride because the instructor continues to include songs/artists that you can’t stand? Curious.
