Are you riding at a local studio in-person? Please check their team page for event details or reach out to the team captain.

We have TWO different virtual ride options available to you. Read the descriptions below and choose the ride that is right for you! Once you’re ready to ride grab your shoes, get on your bike, and press play on your device.

Revolution Ride: Traditional Spin Class

This 45-minute ride is hosted by the team at Prime Cycle. You can watch the ride at the link above whenever you’re ready to clip in! Want to double up and ride for 90 minutes? Feel free to stream the 2021 ride for an extra chance to break a sweat. This ride is suitable for all levels of riders and resembles a Peloton or SoulCycle class.

Revolution Ride: Pedaling for Parkinson’s

This 60-minute ride is hosted by Parkinson’s Foundation Community Grant recipients: Pedaling for Parkinson’s. The program was founded by Dr. Jay Alberts and Cathy Frazier to create a cycling workout specifically for people living with Parkinson’s. The ride includes a 10-minute warm up at 60 RPMs, followed by 40 minutes at 80 RPMs, and a 10 minute cool down at 60 RPMs. This ride is designed for people living with Parkinson’s.

For Peloton Riders

We encourage you to take a ride that you enjoy on 2/24 with your favorite instructor and use the #Ride4PD during your ride. If you’d like to view our pre-recorded rides on the Peloton tablet follow these instructions:

1. On the home screen of your Peloton, click the icon in the bottom of right that looks like 3 dots
2. Click “About” on the popup that appears
3. Tap rapidly 7 times on the bottom right of the popup that appears. This will open the Android application list
4. Click “WebView Browser Tester”, which will open a web browser
5. Type Parkinson.org/Ride2022

Need help following these steps – here’s a brief video tutorial from one of our amazing riders. 

If you’d like to view the ride on a different screen use the Just Ride option on your Peloton. Click on the “more” button and then the “just ride” button. The Peloton displays your ride statistics (power, resistance, distance, cadence, etc.) but there is no instructor on screen. You can load our ride video on a different screen and ride.

Get Social

We’re riding across the country together – share your ride! Tag us on Instagram and Facebook @ParkinsonDotOrg. We want to see your bike set up, your post ride selfie, your reason for riding! We’ll be sharing rider’s photos throughout the day so check our social media to see yourself featured.
