With ski season upon us I thought I would share a video from one of my most favorite places on earth, Vail Colorado.

This weeks ride is from me, Joey! – “In all honesty, I was dreading putting together this week’s ride. My classes have been after me to put together a few theme rides, which I almost never do. This weeks ride is focused on music from the 1970s. I am in the endurance working phase of my micro-periodization for my classes, so I had the profile already put together in my mind. I used one of my favorite endurance profiles, where we start with a higher cadence in the 100s and then work our way down to the 60s adding tension the entire way. The wildest thing happened, I had an amazing time. Once I started listening to the music I kept on thinking: “Oh, I remember and love that one” and it just kept on happening. I ended up with over 140 songs on my short list to choose from. It really made putting this class together fun. I hope that you enjoy riding it as much as I have.” Joey

This ride is from Joey!! – “This was a fun ride to create. This is one of my favorite types of classes. I love the increasing tension class because it builds endurance, builds strength, and teaches the riders how to manage their tension
What Rocket Scientist at Spotify thought this would be a good idea?
What the @#$%^& was Spotify thinking by removing the total playlist time in the latest update? The number of followers has zero value to me when I'm building a playlist.
Last week my Spotify displayed this message offering to update, which I regrettably did.
Don't upgrade Spotify if you want to keep your playlist timer.
Now I have no clue about the total length of the playlist. Chris Hawthorne and I are trying to find a work-around, but for now I suggest using the little X in the right hand corner of the update notice if you haven't updated yet.
There was a question over on a Facebook page asking about Spotify and a mysterious shuffling of the playlist – when it appears that the shuffle is turned off. Chrispins beat me to the answer, but I wanted to add some screen shots to make it easier for you to understand.
I had this exact problem and it drove me nuts until I figured it out.
If you open a playlist in Spotify there's a big “Shuffle Play” button. If you click it – it turns gray for a moment before launching the first track… but it stays white… so you think; “I'm good, the shuffle must be off… I can get on with my class… but wait… this song isn't supposed to come next… WHAT's GOING ON WITH MY PLAYLIST?”
Click on a track – then click the “i” symbol in the top, LH corner.
Which takes you to the info screen. This split screen view shows shuffle on (green) and off.
Any song will show this and you only need to change it once.
Why Spotify makes this so hard to use is anyone's guess 🙁
