Do you hover?

Are you one of those spinners who just likes to go as fast as you can? Or do you prefer to mix things up - jumps, sprints and the like? If you do then no doubt you will have tried hovering.  You slow down to a virtual stand still and come out of the saddle then hover as close to it as possible.  Probably you will feel the effects the next day! At least if you wobble you are unlikely to fall too far. This is not like our road bike colleagues who if hovering as they push up a hill are quite likely to fall off.
The stamina and strength benefits of hovering may be great but that is not the point - it can be good fun especially if done in company and done as part of a medley of jumps, dips and sprints.  It makes Spinning sound almost like swimming? Go on have a try!
