SoulCycle Goes Outside for $500 a Seat (OK, It's a Fundraiser)

Have you ever dreamed about doing SoulCycle outdoors? No, not like actually cycling on a bicycle on the road, but taking a stationary cycling class outdoors. Yeah? Your chance is coming! On Thursday, April 11th, one-hundred soulful, yellow bikes will be toted up to the High Line for a fundraising sunset ride, benefiting Friends of the High Line.

Once the sun goes down, the cycling studio's signature grapefruit-scented candles will be lit (will you be able to smell them in the open air?) and after class you'll enjoy champagne and canapes.

It's $500 to get in the door—er, on the elevated park—for the ride as well as a t-shirt. An extra $750 gets you not only the class and the t-shirt, but also a signed copy of the High Line book. For a total of $5,000 you get to be in the front row for the class and you get not only the t-shirt and the book but also a tote bag and an umbrella. Swag.
