On Monday afternoon, the Great Bend Recreation Commission Board approved the purchase of
seven spin bikes to begin a spin class program next spring at the Activity
Center. A spin class allows participants to pedal along on a stationary bike while
an instructor takes you through a workout with different pace and speed. 
Great Bend Rec Executive Director Chris Umphres said the plan is to purchase
seven bikes now with the ability to add to the allotment if there is a demand. 
"We're pretty excited about it," said Umphres. "We have an instructor lined up with other possible instructors that would like to do it once they learn more. We'll start small and we can always add to it." 
The rec plans to begin spin bike fitness programs next spring. The purchase of
seven spin bikes from Mid-States Fitness Equipment cost $10,710.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;
