Just started riding on my new Peleton
Music so far is not great so looking at possibley getting a Spotify account to ride to own music
My understanding is I get a Spotify account add my music and link to it via my Peleton bike?
What can I actually ride to using Spotify - all classws/scenic routes?
Any other hints and tips would also be helpful
Thanks

Hi. For the studio classes I don't think you can listen to your own music and also hear the instructors. You could listen to your own music on the "just ride" or scenic rides but you could just use your own headphones/mobile - you don't need to use the bike.

The way I and most people use Spotify is that if you are on an on demand ride it tells you what song is playing and if you hit a button it adds it to a Peloton playlist on Spotify. I actually use this feature a lot.

What kind of music do you like? There is a lot of variety so it may just be a matter of finding the right genre and instructor.

It also works with Apple music. Here's a blog post on it. One thing I do a lot is look at the playlists before I pick what ride I'm going to do. Also, after a while you figure out which instructors pick music that you like.
