Saturday routine...

Until recently, I had a very regimented Saturday routine.  

8:30am Soul Cycle class, visit to the farmers market in Union Square, and if it is nice out, walk back uptown.  I've had this Saturday morning schedule for years - very few things would make me cancel.  

I miss it.  Among the many things I miss right now, I miss Soul Cycle.  When Covid-19 was in early stages here I drove from the Upper East Side to Tribeca to Soul Cycle class.  At the time I thought I was being extreme, but better safe than sorry on the subway.  Little did I know that three weeks later, all studios would be closed and a 'Safer at Home' mandate would be in effect.  

I know it seems silly to miss a workout class, but it was/is more than that. 

I keep thinking that when this pandemic is over The Barn in Bridgehampton will be open and Soul Cycle at the beach will be in full effect. 

I had always thought that an at home virtual bike was silly, you would never get the same workout that you would in the studio.   Now, that I am stuck at home, I have never been more jealous of someone with one. 

Soul Cycle is laughing their version this Spring, I have a feeling they will get a lot of orders.
