Excellent customer service. I was in the market to buy cycling shoes as a new rider. I kept missing the mark on buying shoes online. After narrowing down the type of shoe I wanted, I set out to find the nearest retailer for this specific shoe. I came across this cycling studio that carried it and communicated with the owner on stock and availability via email. I finally made it out today and Kelly was the most pleasant person to work with. She helped me find the correct size, installed the cleats and gave me tips on correct sizing on cycling shoes vs athletic shoes and how to place/install/adjust cleats. I even scored a limit edition color way of the shoe! Thank you so much Kelly for your guidance, and assistance to this newbie rider. read more

Fantastic local cycling studio. Have always wanted to try a spin class, but was too intimidated by the larger format, bike preselection and the requirement of specific gear. Kelly walked me through an intro class - which gave me the rundown of what I would expect during a full length class. She also instructed me on how to adjust the bike to what was comfortable for me. Also: 1) theme days, yes, Beyoncé and Boy Bands 2) filtered water station 3) towels are provided - an improvement would be unscented 4) different price packages for your workout needs Locally owned, warm instructors, spacious, naturally lit and hip environment. Puts another 'cool' notch into Alameda's belt. read more

GREAT new space. Very clean, modern, and if Kelly is the owner, she is fantastic. The bikes are new, there's a refillable water station, changing rooms, cubbies, a bathroom, and even charging docks for your smartphones in the back. My first class was with Flo and although she wasn't a compatible fit (wasn't a fan of her music which was too loud and I personally hate when people start counting down from 60 to 30 to 10 etc... Too detailed!), I am excited to come back for a class with other instructors! It's Park Street so parking can be tough! Make sure you arrive early to nab a parking spot! read more

I want to start off by saying how exciting it is for Alameda to have a Spin Studio and an independent one owned by a local at that! I noticed the studio about one month ago and went straight home so I could book a class. Kelly and all the instructors are so kind and each one of them are great teachers with all individual teaching styles. The studio is extremely cute, charming, and clean. There's spots to change, phone changers, and cubbies to hold your belongings during your ride. One class I forgot my water bottle at home. Kelly came to check on me and provided me with a one of the studios personal water bottles and I was so blown away by her kindness and grateful because these classes really make you sweat so you need to stay hydrated! Some additional perks of the studio: - There's a water station to refill your personal bottles. - If you don't have clip in spin shoes. No problem. You can wear your own workout shoes. - A towel is provided on your bike to wipe away your sweat! Trust me you'll need it! This week I signed up for the 8 classes per month pass and I'm just so excited to come to the studio every week! P.S. I LOOOOVE Angela's playlists! read more

Pedal Cycling - Cute Welcome Sign when you walk in - Cycling Classes Near Me - Alameda, California

See all

I am in love with this place! I've been to a couple cycling classes in the city and I really enjoy them, but having a local studio in our town just changes the game. Everything you need is in the studio. Fresh towels, clean bathroom, well-appointed changing rooms, and water fountain. Bring your own bottle! They even have a charging station for your phone while you ride. They don't have showers, but I personally think it's fine. I especially like this studio because they have the cages on their bikes so regular training shoes are fine. No need for clip-on shoes, but you can still use them if you have them! I've attended classes with Kelly, Maggie, Sam, and Flo, and all of them are amazing. Definitely going to be a regular! read more

This place is awesome! The studio is spacious/clean/cute with great ventilation. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the open layout of the bikes (My cycling experiences have only occurred in dark rooms), but i actually like it a lot! The set-up makes it so I have a great view of the instructor and that I can feed off of everyones energy to pedal harder. Samantha is an excellent instructor, the post ride high IS REAL, and the music here is A1!! You don't need special cycling shoes, although I believe you can still clip on if you do have those. The staff is super accomodating and are always happy to answer my questions. I think this is a great addition to the neighbourhood, Pedal also provides snacks post ride, but you can also ride and then eat pancakes next door too lol! read more

My girlfriend loves this studio so she's always asking me to give it a try .The first time I walked into Pedal my body fat percentage was...let's say in the two digits and I had a beer belly because I drink IPAs by the gallon . After my first class , just one class, I left the studio with a 6.73 body fat percentage and washboard abs,this place is amazing ! Okay all jokes aside , this place really is amazing . Pedal is located on Park St. and you might think damn there's no parking on Park Street , but guess what ? It's located at the only section of this busy street that is easy to find a spot . You know the block where Vietnam House is and across the street from Habanas and the bike shop , yeah that area . The studio is cute, super clean and neat .It has little cubbies for you to put your personal belongings in and even cords to charge your phone . I like to bring my own water bottle and steal water from their high tech water machine . The first instructor I had here was Tamyra.If they remade Robocop with a female lead , Tamyra would be a perfect fit for the role . She's like super fit and almost intimidating , but once you talk to her, you quickly find out that she's really nice .My girlfriend told her I was a beginner so Tamyra helped me adjust the bike to fit my body so I can have a comfortable ride. Plot Twist ! My work out was far from "comfortable". Till this day I'm not sure if I died and am writing this review from heaven or if I actually survived the spin class. You get what you want from this class and I wanted a good work out. So I pushed my limits here .At one point , I questioned why I was at Pedal. My shirt was drenched in sweat and my legs were burning , but I didn't stop . There's something about pedaling to the beat of the music that I drew energy from . It's like my mind disconnected from my legs and was like okay pain is not real just follow this trance , but every time I was instructed to increase the resistance , I get a quick reminder that damn pain is real but it's just temporary .After the ride , again I'm not sure if I'm dead or alive at this point . We started stretching and I was really glad I took the class because I felt great . I'm not sure if it's the endorphins kicking in or that I just sweated out all the toxins from my body but I felt great . I had a certain calmness to me the rest of the day .I enjoyed that calmness a lot . Fast forward to my second class ...I thought I was tough stuff . I'm like okay I know what to expect now so this should be a cake walk and this time around I brought reinforcements .I had my girlfriend with me and two other friends. The instructor that day was Sam .She was super sweet to our group . She helped us adjust our seats and got us settled in .She told us to grab some dumbbells . I looked at the 2 pounders and 3 pounders and I'm like pwah! I be lifting ten times that much at the gym . A few minutes into the ride I'm thinking in my head I got this! You've been here before .Then outta nowhere the instructor transformed from being sweet Sam to Drill Sergeant Sam.She had us do dumbbell work outs in a spin class. I didn't know how much 3lbs dumbbells can burn .My first spin class I couldn't feel my legs , this one I couldn't feel my arms or shoulders .Moral of the story is never underestimate a class and every teacher brings their own signature twist to a spin class . I'm glad I listened to my girlfriend and gave Pedal a shot . Now I'm always excited for my next ride . I totally recommend anybody who's looking for a good work out to come check this place out . read more

I love Pedal! I've been going to this Park Street studio fairly regularly since they opened early last year. The owner Kelly is so welcoming and helpful, and I love supporting a local business where the the owner is always around and makes a point to remember people's names. I especially love classes with Tamyra, Leah, and Sam--they all have great energy and the best playlists. I also like how Pedal has some variety in its schedule--my favorites are Tamyra's arm clinic rides and the Pilates + HIIT classes to switch things up from just spin. This is a bright, clean space with useful extras like towels, phone chargers, hair ties, yoga mats, etc. read more

I LOVE Pedal, Kelly is fantastic. I never feel intimated and every instructor is very helpful!

Tried this cycling studio using ClassPass. It's relatively new and popped up within the last 1-2 years. Was pretty packed for a Saturday morning, though not surprising since Spin folk are serious about their rides! I enjoyed the instructor, Angela, who had a decent playlist and some average choreography. Her energy though was encouraging and above average. I just wish that they would offer shoes here because I couldn't go full out putting tennis shoes into shoe cages that aren't super tight and are generally flimsy with ankle pressure. Probably won't be going back for that reason. read more

So happy this studio opened in Alameda. Have been looking for a cycling studio close to Alameda for a while now. Instructors and the owner are friendly and welcoming. Great place for both beginners and experienced riders. read more

I just started going to Pedal a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I was a little intimidated to try a spin class again after 10+ years, but the studio, and owner Kelly, were so welcoming and inviting. The classes are challenging, but all the instructors have great energy. I leave there drenched in sweat and with a big smile. The other people I have met at the studio have been very friendly. I'm so glad Pedal opened in Alameda! read more

Finally, Alameda has a dedicated spin studio! It has been a few years since I've regularly attended a spin class, so I was excited to see that this space was opening up. This studio is clean and the classes are fun. The instructors that I have taken so far have all been excellent, providing inspiration and feedback. Plus, everyone is so nice there. I definitely hope more people start coming to the classes--I would like to see this business thrive. read more

Taken a few cycling classes before but love that it's right here in alameda now. Love the hours of classes! I love that I can go there during my lunch and have enough time to get back to work. Love the look of the place, very inviting. Everyone is so friendly and genuinely interested in having you have the best cycling experience. They have a station where you can fill up your water bottle, sell cycling shoes but don't push it on you. They classes I've taken so far have been awesome. I would, and am, recommending this place to everyone! read more

PEDAL is one of the best studios I have ever been to. Instructors are fantastic and encourage you to be your best! The workouts are perfect for beginner to advanced riders. I cannot wait for the next class - I love the themed classes! Beyoncé and friends was no joke! read more

Warning! If you sign up on their website to view class schedule be prepared to be spammed with texts! I signed up one evening to view their class schedule and since it required I give my phone number I kept getting texts from them to come in. I just got one today even AFTER I asked them to stop. I just think it's tacky to spam people with texts. read more

Ever since I moved to Alameda I've been dying for a good spin studio to open, so I was STOKED when Pedal opened on Park Street. The location is super convenient and the studio is both beautifully set up and incredibly well run. Having moved around a lot and experienced many spin studios, I can honestly say this one is my favorite! The instructors are excellent, the workouts are fun, and the owner is so friendly and helpful! read more

This place rocks! Its awesome for Alameda to have a spin studio and the fact is is on Park Street is even better. Kelly, the owner, is super friendly and goes out of her way to make all feel welcome. I have been going to a couple classes a week for about four months and every class has been great. The instructor's style varies, but they are all fun and supportive. They even have a few yoga and Pilates classes thrown in which is great for variety. The studio is also super styley with cool colors, big fans, filtered water, fresh towels and all the gear you need. You should totally come check it out. read more

Yay, I am so happy that Alameda is home to Pedal Cycling! I started going regularly to Pedal about six weeks ago and I am completely hooked. All of the spin instructors have been awesome, are super motivational, and are very supportive throughout the workout. There are also different workouts throughout the week, so you can mix it up with different kinds of spin and yoga classes. The facility is spotless with great new bikes, phone chargers, and cubbies to safely store your belongings during the class. I can't reccomend spin classes here enough! read more

Pedal is a great addition to Park St and Alameda! I never thought I would get hooked on spinning, but this safe, friendly space makes it so fun and inspiring (and not a bit intimidating)! The owner is so welcoming and the instructors are wonderful. Highly recommend! read more

I had always been a runner and wanted to try something new. A friend took me to a Pedal Cycling Alameda class, when it was still located on park street. Since then, it has moved to The Mission HQ on clement. Most of the classes are hosted outside on The Mission HQ parking lot, which is fantastic. All the instructors are amazing, and teach a different style. I've taken a class from most off of them, and they each offer a great workout, and great music play lists. There are various times to pick from (early morning 6:00am, 4:00pm on Wed, 5:30 and 6pm Tuesday and Thursday evenings and even weekend classes Saturday and Sunday mornings). All the instructors are so welcoming and encouraging. A great place to get your cardio in!! read more

Amazing place to take spin classes. All the instructors are great, playlists are fun, and it's great to do spin classes outdoors.

I have been to several Pedal classes & am making it a permanent part of my weekly fitness routine. It is a cozy & inspiring atmosphere. Top notch in every way from instructors, available schedule, ambience, cleanliness, etc. I feel so happy to be able to support a local mom's business venture. It is a wonderful new addition to Alameda! read more

This place is fantastic and a sorely needed addition to Alameda! Kelly (the owner) is so friendly and really outdid herself with the studio. It's really welcoming, super clean, the bikes are new, there is lots of room for changing/storing gear/charging phones, and it's in a convenient location right off Park Street. I am keeping fingers crossed this place does well, as I would love to make it part of my regular exercise routine. GO and support this local business (and have lots of fun doing it!)! read more

Great studio in downtown Alameda! I come here every week and I always get a great workout. The instructors are very motivating and supportive. The classes are also quite challenging, but they do help people who are beginners. They even take the time to help you adjust your bike. There are also very thoughtful amenities such as hair ties and phone chargers. read more

Great addition to Park Street. PEDAL has a welcoming and inspiring decor & ambiance. It's the perfect place to sweat it out and clear your mind. The instructors are professional, knowledgeable and AWESOME. I've loved every class I've been to. I love all the quaint details from the phone chargers while you sweat it out, to the baskets of supplies in the changing room, to the basket of hair ties at the front desk. It's truly a wonderful atmosphere and community of PEDAL-ers. Highly recommend! read more

In my search to find a new workout, I popped in here last night for a class with Flo. I was concerned about parking but easily found it on Oak and walked through the alley. First off, the studio is super cute! I was greeted by Kelly, who is very welcoming, and she gave me a run-through of the place. Phone chargers while you spin, hair ties, cubbies large enough to actually fit your stuff, snacks, a water station and goodies to help you get ready after your ride, oh and don't forget the towel waiting for you on your bike! Then, the ride. Flo is amazing! Her classes push you but without any pressure whatsoever. Added bonus, comfy bikes, (yeah, I said it.) Can't wait to come back for another ride! read more

Alameda finally has a spinning studio, and it's truly excellent, in a nice, clean, well-lit space with brand-new bikes and a great location. I can always find street parking within a block. The owner and the instructors are friendly, welcoming, and encouraging, which is especially nice for a spinning beginner, but even if you're an experienced indoor cyclist you'll get an intense work-out. They have a variety of classes (I've taken the HIIT and the Strength ones) with various instructors. Pedal Cycling has helped me renew my exercise and fitness routine. I really needed a convenient place close to home to rely on for consistent exercise, and Pedal Cycling couldn't have opened at a better time. Two more things to add: they have great multi-class pass options (with generous expiration dates), and they provide a towel for each workout -- seems like a little thing, but not having to bring your own towel (you'll need it) is great. Thanks Pedal Cycling for being part of the Alameda community! read more
