At PAPER there seem to be two types of people: those who religiously attend SoulCycle classes every other day and those who haven't set foot in a gym since high school. Against all odds, the spin freaks managed to convince the rest of us to take part in a team ride at SoulCycle's Chelsea studio and it was a big success. Our wonderful instructor, Mantas, who wore a t-shirt that said "Surf, Yoga, Beer" on it simultaneously inspired and scared the shit out of the new riders but ultimately got everyone's heart pumping when Michael Jackson came on during the class. Legs shaking, dripping with sweat, everyone survived the ride and many agreed that they couldn't wait to come back. Maybe next time we can even convince Mr. Mickey to ride in the front row.
