It's always good to be able to highlight local businesses that are leading the way. Instyle Fitness is very much this type of business.
They made their name with top quality exercise bikes. But they realised that pedalling away at a stationary bike is not one of lif'e's more exciting activities. So they came up with WebRacing.
You still ride the bike, you still get the exercise, but WebRacing puts you in a virtual race with other riders. Pedal faster and you catch up and pass other riders. You can see the scenery go by. You can talk with other riders.
This is done by connecting the bike to a networked computer which tells other riders what you are doing and shows you their actions.
Instyle's american partners have recently installed a number of WebRacing equipped exercise machines in the corporate gym at American Oncology. The video explains more:
WebRacing doesn't just work in a gym. You can have a machine at home and race friends on the internet. Brilliant, isn't it?
If you have ever been really bored on an exercise machine, call Duncan Lawson on 01342 315933 www.webracing.co.uk
