Or maybe it's the bike that's also a bus?
"One British fitness company is planning to kill two birds with one stone and combine your morning commute with a fitness class," according to an article by Rachel Thompson.
"1Rebel has announced plans to transform a London bus into a mobile spinning studio, so you can combine your commute with a high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout," adds Thompson. Yes, you read that correctly: a bus, turned into a room full of stationary bikes.
