Bruce Springsteen fans are born to ride — on Peloton bikes
More than 3,000 Peloton users participated in the 45-minute “Bruce Springsteen Ride” with instructor Jenn Sherman on Wednesday, May 17. The ride was part of Peloton's “Featured Artist Series.”
“I'm singing, I'm doing the moves on 'Badlands,' but so did Jenn,” said fan and podcast host Mitch Slater from Westfield. “It was one of the best rides but you know me, I'm a little biased.”
Sherman, a Fort Lee native, is also Springsteen fan who's a regular at Boss concerts. Slater has hung out with her at shows.
“I’m usually a woman of many words. But can’t seem to find the right ones to articulate my excitement level for this ride,” said Sherman Wednesday on Instagram before the ride.
“Darkness on the Edge of Town” was the first song. Sherman said she spent a lot of time tinkering with the setlist, and the Springsteen team allowed her to use the music.
“My Bruce Springsteen artist series ride has been a long time coming," said Sherman in a statement. "I’ve taught thousands of classes on the Peloton platform, but this was the ride I’ve been waiting my entire career to teach. Being able to honor and celebrate my all-time favorite artist on the bike with this ride was an absolute joy for me, and certainly a high point in my journey at Peloton.”
Peloton's Featured Artist Series has highlighted the music of artists ranging from Elvis Presley to Bad Bunny. The Sherman Springsteen ride is currently available on demand, and there are several more Springsteen live classes coming up through Friday, May 19.

Springsteen and the E Street Band are currently touring Europe and will return to the United States to play stadiums and arenas in August, including three shows at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford on Aug. 30, Sept. 1 and 3.
“When you have music, it motivates you,” Slater said “It's the whole reason half of us go to these shows.”
