Peloton Username Puns

I’m trying to think of an office themed username for my peloton, any ideas?

Need help finding something for my peloton classes.

I got tired checking for usernames I kinda want to switch to on Peloton, and with 1.4mln usernames and people changing them around, wished there was a way to not have to check occasionally.

So, I wrote this script below. It works in Google Apps Scripts, which is basically a free service everyone w/ a gmail account has. It runs the code on google's servers, and sends you an email if the username becomes available. A couple people mentioned wanting to do the same so hopefully this helps.

The full code is below. In settings, set your "trigger" to be time-based, e.g. run every 12hrs. I prob wouldn't check more than 2x/day so you don't hit their servers with annoying frequency.

/**
 * Checks Peloton for a desired username
 * When it becomes available, send an email alert
 */
function myFunction() {

  //Enter the username desired below. Capitalization does not matter
  var username = "johnfoley";
  
  //For the alert, enter the To email address, Subject, and message body
  var emailAddress = 'youremail@domain.com';
  var subject = 'Peloton Username ' + username + ' is AVAILABLE!';
  var message = 'The Peloton username ' + username + ' just became AVAILABLE! Go claim it now via your profile preferences at https://members.onepeloton.com/preferences/profile-info';

  //Check if username is taken (exists=true)
  var url = 'https://api.onepeloton.com/api/user/exists?username=' + username;
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
  response.getContentText();
  var data = JSON.parse(response);
  
  //Send email alert when username is available (exists=false)
  if (data.exists == false) {
    MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, subject, message);
    }

}

To setup the script (full instructions here):

1. Visit script.google.com to open the script editor. (You’ll need to be signed in to your Google account.) If this is the first time you’ve been to script.google.com
   , you’ll be redirected to a page that introduces Apps Script. Click Start Scripting to proceed to the script editor.
2. A welcome screen will ask what kind of script you want to create. Click Blank Project or Close.
3. Delete any code in the script editor and paste in the code below.
4. Select the menu item File > Save. Name your new script and click OK.
5. From the script editor, choo

Hey r/orangetheory

Anyone else loving their Peloton? Now my biggest struggle at OTF is the treadmill downgrade! haha

Still keeping my OTF subscription for the social aspect, though I dropped from Unlimited to 1x a week. I will still likely do things like Hell Week, though.

Anyhow, I'm #johncisco on Peloton!

I wouldn't mind some company ❤️

Edit: Ummm....holy crap you all. I am just overwhelmed by your kindness. Thank you everyone for your comments, awards ,etc. Just wow! Today is the anniversary of hearing my father had cancer and he passed away 46 days later. Granted, this was three years ago, but this stretch of time is always hard and really...you never do stop grieving. 2021 was my year of healing and 2022 is recovering.

I bought the Peloton bike as a way for community. I have been really...lonely. But a week into this purchase, it just proved every reason why I bought it - and I am so thrilled to find you all. Please PM me as I would love to give you my username :) I have also followed u/thatsmisternono 's suggestion and added myself to the #ridingthrugrief. I don't know how meetups work or where I post - but I would love to make regular ride times with you all.

I hope my words convey the gratitude I have. Thank you thank you thank you <3

Idk who on peloton’s product team needs to hear this, but damn I wish the coaches would let a song just play for more than 5 seconds. Let that mf beat drop and let us get after it…instead of interrupting that stream of serotonin by calling out 12 random usernames. Cycling is about flow state but these coaches make that almost impossible for me. I’d be on this thang everyday if that were different.

Or a feature that allows us to fully customize the coach-to-music volume ratio. What’s currently available doesn’t give enough control.

Hi folks,

A bit of background: 32/m, long time runner (last 13–15 years, average 3-5 runs a week at 3-4 minors. A few years of increased distances to marathon distance), 15 pounds over ideal weight, great stamina and low heart rate during exercise.

I purchased a Peloton bike a month or so ago as running really just hasn’t been doing it for me for sometime. I struggle to push myself from boredom and 3 and 4 mile runs barely break a sweat. I’m worried about long term joint pain too (family history of crap joints/arthritis). My problems/questions are as such:

1. I developed knee pain early in my running career. Really localized to my left patella and noticed it more at increased distances. Basically a localized pain that if bad enough, would stop me from running. I felt it recently in a few rides (and haven’t felt it in a run in a few years) and am concerned. Could this be from posture? Poor seat/handle bar height? Has anyone experienced similar pain and found a solution with riding?

2. not to start up a calorie calculator argument, but how much does heart rate play into the calorie burn? When I ran 4 miles I barely broke a sweat but these rides have me puffing (and it’s great!). I struggle to get into zone 5 as I think my heart rate is lower from running for so long. My legs give out riding, way before my heart rate gets me. Given similar workout times I can’t help but feel I’m burning substantially more, and getting a way better workout, with the Peloton. I also never knew my HR while running as I only finally bought a monitor when I got the bike.

Thanks all, and drop some recs for classes too! Been riding with Cody and he has me laughing the entire time!

Edit: thanks for all the info folks. Going to get fitted for the bike, work on form, and focus on power for cals. If you want a ride partner, DM and I’ll pass along username! I’m new so I don’t have any live folks to ride with. Usually ride early (5:30 am, CST). Thanks!

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Hello,

Any Liverpool supports know if Jurgen Klopp is a Peloton user? For those who don't know, he's the manager of the first team club..

I can't post a picture (maybe I'm too new to Reddit?). While doing a 45 min PZ I got a high five from someone with the username JurgenKlopp. Accurate picture and location - just wondered if maybe it was actually him or maybe it was just a fan / catfish? Either way it was a cool little moment on a ride even though I'm not a Liverpool supporter.

This sub has the most clever people I've ever had a pleasure of reading on the Internet. Seeking funny/punny Bravo inspired Wifi names! I may use some suggestions as inspo for my Peloton username too...

My sorry attempts:

• LittleFamilyBike [Peloton]
• WhereIsYourBike [Peloton]
• SimonLANKampen [Wifi]

THANKS ALL <3

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

Pilot on me!!

I’ve been lurking this subreddit up until recently under a different username and made a new one to match my Peloton name. This is my first group ride - sorry it’s so last minute! If you’d like to join me for my 100th ride, I’d love the company. :)

Nothing, he was gladiator.

Or would that be too forward thinking?

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

When I got home, they were still there.

I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

I’m trying to think of a parks and rec themed username for my peloton. Any ideas?
