I've taken two classes at Just Ride Studio in Concord, and I absolutely LOVE it! I'm so happy they offer early morning classes at 5:45 a.m. because I'm able to get a great spin workout in before starting my workday. I also took the 7:30 a.m. R&B class on Saturday morning, and it was a total vibe! I met Mercedes, and she was so sweet. All of the instructors are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and motivating. The energy in the studio is amazing, and I was sweating buckets after both classes! The facility is also very clean and well-maintained. I'll definitely be signing up for a membership. Highly recommend! read more

I don't even know where to begin with Just Ride, because this place gave me so much more than I ever expected. I rode all the way through my pregnancy -- right up until the day before I gave birth. Every single class, I felt held by this community. The encouragement, the check-ins, the way people genuinely cared about how I was feeling -- it carried me through one of the most vulnerable times of my life. Riding wasn't just a workout. It was where I felt strong when so much of me felt fragile. Coming back 8 weeks postpartum was harder than I can put into words. My body felt like a stranger to me, and getting on that bike was the one thing I could do to start finding myself again. And the moment I walked back in, I wasn't alone. This community wrapped around me and helped me rebuild -- not just my strength, but my confidence, my sense of who I am. I'll never forget how Mercedes personally adjusted my bike on my first days back and kept it dialed in for me, making sure I was safe every single time. That kind of care, that attention to one person finding her way back -- it meant everything to me. The classes are incredible. They're fun and engaging, the music lifts you up, and the owners pour so much heart into making sure everyone feels supported and safe. But what makes Just Ride truly special is that it's so much more than an indoor cycling studio. It's a community of people who show up for each other, who encourage and care for one another like family. Joining Just Ride wasn't just about getting fit. It was about being caught when I needed it most, and finding my strength again surrounded by people who felt like home. I'm so deeply grateful. ‍ read more

JustRide is a cycling studio, but it's much more than that. It is a cycling studio about community and celebration! Mark and Mercedes are the owners of JustRide and always make sure you feel welcomed as soon as you walk in the door! All of the instructors are so nice, helpful, and what I love the most about the staff is how invested they are in everyone's lives! Each class is a celebration, whether it's someone's first ride or 500th ride! Whether someone is celebrating a birthday, a baby, a move, a new job, or just celebrating showing up to class! The music, the vibes, the energy, is unmatched! It is an amazing cycling studio and I'm so thankful I found this place! read more

Absolutely love this place! I am always so nervous starting out but they were so welcoming and helpful! Learning to ride a bike again as a disabled individual is tough but my instructor Mercedes found ways for me to adapt and feel included during the class. They have experience with amputees, so if you are looking for an inclusive and adaptive place, you definitely have to check this place out. Can't wait for Taylor Swift day! read more

JustRide - Mercedes my amazing trainer/instructor, love learning together! - Cycling Classes Near Me - Concord, California

Know people that go here so gave it a shot. Easy to signup to their website and they have a good deal on intro/trial offers to try the place out to make sure it's a good fit. I like that it's not a big multi-equipment gym chain, so it's more personal and easier to interact with people. I like this local business, hope to come to more classes in the future. read more

I happen to notice justride when I was walking around the complex with my son. It was closed at the time and Mark ( the owner) unlocked the door to greet me. I had been looking to add more cardio to my workout routine. Mark was so warm and welcoming. He invited me inside with my son, showed me around and told me all about it. He handed me a card good for 5 classes for $25. I went thru those classes in less than a week. I then joined and became a VIP member. I take 6 classes a week and have taken over 78 classes since August 21 2025. I also have dropped 32 pounds. Consistency is the key!!!! My mind, body and spirit are so much happier. Mercedes is Marks wife, and the 2 of them are absolutely wonderful people. They have a special place in my heart, through this journey that I am on. ALL the instructors go above and beyond every class...take it from me, I am there almost everyday! It's a wonderful studio. It was time that I start giving back to myself...and now I look forward everyday to stepping in the studio...my second home. read more

Just Ride isn't like your typical studio. I'm someone who used to hate exercising. Gyms never stuck for me until I found cycling. Just Ride was only the second or third studio I tried, and after one class, I completely fell in love. From day one, it felt like home. I've been going for a few years now, and while I wish I could make it multiple times a week, my mental health and schedule doesn't always allow that. One of the things I love most about Just Ride is that there's never pressure. No guilt. They're simply there when you're ready. I did try another gym for a couple of months, but it only confirmed what I already knew - this is my place. Every single instructor brings a different, incredible energy. And the owners, Mercedes and Mark, are truly some of the kindest people. They don't feel like "owners", they feel like friends. There is one instructor in particular who has been life-changing for me. Every time I step into her class, no matter how depressed I'm feeling or what I'm going through, I leave feeling lighter. Her music is perfectly aligned with what I love (which is wild considering we're almost 10 years apart), but it's her energy that's unmatched. She makes you feel safe. She encourages you to sing (which let's be real that's why I'm there). She lets you be you. Shoutout to Hailey for being exactly who she is. What I appreciate most are the little things: rushing in at 8:57 for a 9:00 class, feeling chaotic-- hen walking in and realizing no one is judging you. Forgetting my water bottle? They've got me. Leaving my shoes in the car and not wanting to go back? They have my size ready. The moment I walk in, I feel taken care of. It's one of the few places where I'm not the one taking care of someone else and that's rare for me. This review has been a long time coming. Thank you, Just Ride, for the space you give this community. I truly wouldn't be where I am without you, and I'm so grateful for everything you do. read more

I love JustRide! The instructors don't just bring the heat- they bring incredible energy and a strong sense of community. I actually look forward to my workouts and seeing the amazing team. Mercedes has created such a welcoming, empowering studio environment that keeps regulars coming back and makes newcomers feel right at home. Special shoutout to Hailey, Amanda, Julianna, Kimia, Mercedes, and Elliana! You all are the best! If you haven't tried JustRide yet, what are you waiting for?! read more

Loved my experience at JustRide! I could immediately feel the tight knit community, which in my opinion is really what you pay for when you go to a boutique fitness studio. Mercedes even gave me her phone number so I could reach out with questions. You can't get that kind of care at commercial studios. - Easy parking - read the email because the tips were helpful to find the studio. - Mercedes was friendly when checking me in and got me set up with everything I needed. - Lockers and towels are complimentary! Shoe rental is $3. - Jessica oriented me to the bike and left me feeling confident and comfortable for my first class - Adriana brought the best vibes for her last ride! I was challenged and motivated. - Two bathrooms! They were spacious and had amenities such as makeup remover, dry shampoo, etc. I was able to change and get ready for the rest of my day. read more

I love this place! I joined the beginning of January 2025 after my beloved Row House closed down (sad face). I felt so welcome the first moment I stepped in the studio. Mercedes is wonderful. I had taken spin classes many moons ago and needed a refresher on pretty much everything. I can tell she really cares, it's not just a business to her. Definitely give it a try, especially if you're not into the big corporate type gyms. read more

My absolute favorite place to workout the classes are so much fun and you're able to go at your own pace. All the instructors are amazing and it's always a good time ‍ read more

So I'm in California for a 13-week work contract. I was looking for a place to join to stay active while I'm out here. I came across JustRide online and decided to try out a class. Immediately after walking through the door, I was welcomed by Mercedes and Mark. Even tho I've taken many many spin classes before, Mercedes still took me to the room to walk me through how to set up my bike. After the first class I was instantly hooked! They had good deals going on that I had to sign up for the unlimited monthly passes. Mercedes has been nothing but welcoming and so so so helpful since I've signed up. Not to mention the instructors are absolutely amazing. This studio beats SoulCycle 100 times and then some! And to top it off, you get to bring a friend to ride with you 3 x a month! So it's nice to be able to bring my boyfriend a few times to ride with me. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this studio, I'm going to really miss it when I leave. read more

JustRide has truly changed my life! From the moment I walk through the door, I'm greeted by name, and the sense of community here is unmatched. This isn't just about fitness - it's about a mind-body connection that brings mindfulness into every ride. The family-owned studio creates such a positive atmosphere, and every instructor brings their own unique energy and fun to the class. If you've been thinking about joining, don't hesitate--JustRide! I couldn't recommend it more! read more

Great instructor and very nice, well ventilated, well maintained indoor cycling studio. Owner is also instructor; the facility is very clean and all around perfect. read more

The GOAT of cycling studios. Soul Cycle feels like an elementary PE class compared to JustRide. I've been to Soul Cycle twice, and it does not compare to Just Ride. The instructors here put so much effort into their classes. I've enjoyed every class so far, I have not had a bad experience, always was greeted with great service. The ladies here are killing it and Mercedes is always so attentive of all the customers. Even if you can't get the choreo right, or is off beat, still a great workout! Can't say enough good things about this place. It's literally a rave and cycling class combined. read more

The energy this studio has and the friendly and motivating environment they have created is really like nothing else. Yes, it's partly because cycling with music is a ton of fun, but I also firmly believe this studio in particular has a magic to it that is hard to replicate. I seriously went from not moving my body at all to attending classes 5 times a week. If you haven't been able to find an exercise that you love yet, try out JustRide. I guarantee you will walk out of a class smiling and motivated. I found JustRide after I had struggled to work out and move my body since basically the beginning of covid. I work from home and getting up out of the house to even get 1,000 steps in felt like an impossible task for me. I felt desperate to enjoy moving my body and to love/respect my body enough to gain muscle and strength. Joining ClassPass felt like a last effort way to find something I liked to do and I am so incredibly grateful that we stumbled into JustRide. I jumped in so quickly because I hadn't felt joy after exercising in like 8 years like I did after my first JustRide has truly changed my life. I look forward to my classes and I eagerly book as soon as the classes are posted. The variety of amazing instructors ensures that there is something for everyone. I'm greeted by name, the playlists are always amazing, the studio is modern and clean. It immediately felt like a second home. read more

I am so glad I found JustRide! The studio is awesome, they have a wide variety of instructors and the staff are all so friendly. It feels like you are walking in to a group of cheerleaders all for you! I highly recommend giving them a try. read more

I was in Concord for the summer, and I wasn't sure what to expect at a new cycling studio, but I loved every second of it! The positive energy during class is truly unique compared to studios I've been to in the past, and it is a testament to the hard work the instructors and managers put into creating this space. Wish I could pack up the studio with me as I move on! read more

I was nervous to try out JustRide because I'm super out of shape and haven't taken many cycling classes. However, I felt so welcomed as soon as I walked in the door. The instructor explained the bike to me, helped me click in and click out. Great workout. The instructor's energy was amazing. I will definitely be back. Loved it. Also, tons of parking! read more

I've been frequenting JustRide for 3-4 months now and I have been loving it! I wanted a cardio workout to supplement my fitness routine and this is it. Just Ride is a small business, locally owned by Mark & Mercedes. They welcome everyone into their studio and treat you like family as soon as you walk in. They set up your bike, explain the format of the class to you, and make sure you have everything you need for your first ride! They also do a great job building a community with their Thirsty Thursdays (champagne after class), and open to conversing before and after class. The class is beat-based... as a former cheerleader/dancer/marching bando, I appreciate it SO MUCH. It's pretty easy to catch on to the style of the class if you listen to the beat. Am I in a music video?-vibes. Other cycling studios are about hitting RPMs/ competition based (whether with others or yourself) which is fine if keeps you motivated. Personally, I don't care about the numbers (it honestly stressed me out) but more about having fun and getting a tough work out at the same time! Additionally, I don't believe in pushing yourself to injury cause you are trying to hit certain numbers. JustRide makes it very clear that the workout is for YOU TODAY so no need to feel intimidated by the workout- do your personal best for that day! All the instructors are so great and anyone is bound to find someone who fits their style. I consider myself pretty fit and their classes are intense but fun! You can always tone down the workout to what suits you! There's fun lights when the beat drops, complimentary towels, water fountain for your water bottle, free lockers, lots of parking. Definitely worth it! read more

It's been six months of being part of the JustRide community, and I cannot express how much of a positive impact it has had on my life. Mercedes and Mark have created a special space that is safe, inclusive, and welcoming for you to be yourself and, at the same time, challenge yourself to push past the uncomfortable no matter where you are in life. Comparing where I am now to when I started, it feels like I have jumped light-years ahead. I have reconnected with my body in a transformational way. After dealing with severe asthma all my life, I relearned how to breathe, which I never thought I could do. JustRide is not only a cycling studio; it's a place to transform into the better version of yourself. read more

Hands down the best cycling studio In the Bay Area ! I've been hooked since my first class , Mercedes and Mark are the best , they take good care of everyone and very attentive to everyone's needs and requests . Try them out today and you'll be coming everyday too ! read more

I first discovered JustRide through a friend. I went in to accompany her. Little did I know that I'd be joining myself. Mark and Mercedes were so welcoming, and made me feel at ease. I was expecting it to be intimidating going in as a beginner. They made me feel comfortable from the very first moment I walked in, explained everything in detail making me feel like I knew what I was doing. They are always readily available! Special shout out to the instructor Robyn as well! She's been amazing and really makes the rides very easily to follow with the way she breaks everything down during the class. Her energy is also very motivating and really pushes you! As a beginner she was super helpful in being able to follow along. Highly recommended! read more

I can't believe it's taken me so long to remember to write a review about my favorite place ever!!! I started in October, and my first ride got me HOOKED. I pushed off starting JustRide for so long because I thought it was going to be just like all of the other cycling businesses, cliques, rude owners, etc. NOT HERE! Mark & Mercedes are the kindest people you'll ever meet, and they go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. It can be so intimidating to some, starting a healthy journey that you aren't used to, but the moment you walk in there, you feel at home. Hands down the best place to get your sweat on. TRY IT! Workouts are inside now! read more

That was the best experience for long time.thanks. I would definitely recommend it and go back if I have time.

I have been coming to JustRide for a few months now and have enjoyed every single class. I take classes using ClassPass, but have felt like a part of the community. The owner Mercedes sets the positive and welcoming tone for the whole studio. I'm always greeted with a smile and by my first name. The instructors truly go out of their way to help get you situated and to ensure every class is enjoyable and worth the price. I've had great fitness results and have increased my cardiovascular levels since consistently attending class. I definitely recommend it for people in the east bay. read more

If you're into cycling I would highly recommend! read more

I came here for a while last year & can't believe I never gave a review ! This place is amazing. I had to leave bc we're a military family and moved overseas but I miss it so sooo much.

She makes you feel so comfortable, and she's also super welcoming, as are all the instructors. You could tell everyone who works here loves what they do, and truly want you to have an amazing experience. I can't stress enough how much I miss it. It's a real judgment free zone & I will definitely come back when I return to the bay ! read more

Went to my first class today and I'm obsessed! I've done other cycling classes, but there is nothing quite as vibrant, fun, and easy to follow as the class I went to today!

Will definitely be back!! read more
