Bremshey Cardio Pacer ER Recumbent Cycle

Advantages: Good classes, excellent customer service
Disadvantages: No pool

...machines (between 2-6 of each machine). They cover just about everything; there are steppers, several running machines, plenty of cross trainers, 4 rowers, 4 recumbent cycles and 2 normal cycles. They also have a full range of weights machines and free weights.

The weight training area is huge, and looks... Read review
