This classic Spinning® song reached the top 5 of the UK charts in 2000, and can still be heard in cycling studios around the world. The instrumental version is almost 10 min long, great for a flat road focused stretch of road at 95rpm. The shorter album version with lyrics is a perfect longer interval recovery song of 4 minutes long. . . . keep reading
