indigo_rose99This past weekend we went to Vegas, which was lovely. Raaga123 wrote most of what I wanted to say about it.
But she did not talk about the cool bike in the gym. It was one of those stationary bikes, with a screen in front of it. I was thinking "TV," but no. It was a stationary bike that the handlebars would move (rare) and the seat was hideously uncomfortable (to keep people from lingering?). And the screen was a video game! You could ride paths with other bikers... or hunt dragons! I totally hunted dragons! Let me tell you, I did not notice the hills on this thing, because I was getting myself a silver dragon -- more points, you know. The landscape was a island with Asian ruins and wrecked ships.
I was impressed. Not enough to want one for myself, but enough to want one in my gym to play with occasionally.
