It’s true. The Yelp Elite Squad loves great food and drink. But sometimes they also just want to sweat it out! Thanks to the team at MobCycle, that’s exactly what they did. Last week over 30 Portland Yelpers took part in an intense, complimentary workout followed by great food and drink. They’re still Yelp Elites, after all!
After checking in, guests were given official Yelp bandanas and sweatbands and divided into two groups. Some would begin in the MobCycle spin studio, an intimate space illuminated by blacklight. Instructor Sam F guided the Yelpers through thirty minutes of cardio drills. The workout was challenging but easy to follow and had them both in and out of the saddle! The other group went next door into the connect sister-business Stumptown Crossfit. Here, instructor Will L pushed the Elites to complete group high-intensity interval training. Using free-weights, body weight, and resistance bands, the Yelper-athletes pumped and pushed their way through a full body workout. No matter their fitness level, nobody left this event without an elevated heart-rate and a healthy glow.
As the two groups made their way out of the studios and back into MobCycle’s lobby, they discovered a surprise! While they pedaled, pumped, lunged, and jumped, the team from Pambiche had snuck in and set up a post-workout buffet of authentic Cuban cuisine! On the menu were delicious and flaky empanadas, some spinach and cheese, the others beef hash. Everybody enjoyed the hearty corn fritters. The remolacha salad had fresh seasonal beets and fresh watercress tossed with cuban aliño dressing. And the fruit salad was a sweet and healthy way to end the meal! And to wash down their dinner? Delicious hard ciders from 2 Town Ciderhouse, made in Corvallis, Oregon!
Over time, the guests made their way out the door, but not before they received coupons to Pambiche and promo-codes that earned them a free class of their choice at MobCycle. It was obvious that everybody couldn’t wait to cash in both, and soon! Want to learn more about how the Yelp Elites enjoyed their workout? Read the reviews on Yelp!
