Peloton is a ripoff. $1500-3000 for a stationary bike is complete madness. I'd rather spend that money towards a nice road bike that you can mount to a smart trainer so you can use it indoors and outside. I have 2 kurt kinetic road machine fluid trainers, one I bought new, the other I picked up used for $75 locally and I added the Kinetic inRide 3 power sensor. It's probably not as accurate as the expensive Wahoo smart trainers but that's not important to me. I've been using Sufferfest (now Wahoo SYSTM) synched with TrainingPeaks and Strava for the last 1-2 years. I wish there was a program I could buy without a monthly fee. I looked into Golden Cheetah, which is free and very powerful with all the metrics it tracks, but it seemed overly complicated and you've got to manually build the training sessions.
