City commuters tend to fall into one of two main camps: those who use their work journeys to multitask, hanging off a handrail while composing emails and catching up on the headlines, and those who keep their eyes shut, silently grieving sleep and working out to the minute the next time they'll be able to give in to the sweet embrace of bed.

The former are probably the ones who get up early for a workout, sacrificing snooze time in order to wring the most from their day. And soon they’ll be able combine their commute with fitness by spinning their way to work. On a bus. No, really.

Gym company 1Rebel plans to launch Ride2Rebel later this year with several routes across London, kitting buses out with bikes, mirrors, tinted windows, pumping music and nightclub-grade lighting, as well as occasional live performances from musicians and MCs.

All routes will end at one of their gyms so customers can use their facilities before work and avoid that one office shower nobody ever uses because it's weird.

Initially, it does sound a little odd to be cycling a static bike on a moving bus rather than just, well, cycling to work, but as anyone who's ever done a spin class and lived to tell the tale can attest, spinning is most definitely not just cycling. Unless when you cycle through London you are also waving around heavy weights while climbing a never-ending hill and crying on the inside.
