At the end of our first class on the new FreeMotion Indoor Cycles last Sunday, I spent close to 30 minutes answering questions from participants about the cycles and the Power meters: How many Watts should I be making? Why did I have to turn it up so high before I saw any real increase… 
I just got confirmation that the Life Time Athletic club, where I have a Sunday 90 min endurance class, will have 65 new FreeMotion S11.9 indoor cycles for my next class!

This post is based on a letter I wrote last year when a group of instructors and students nominated Jim for IDEA Instructor of the Year. In my 20-plus years in the industry, I’ve never known…
