Peloton

The Peloton ad seems a bit weird to me, but not offensive or sexist. Maybe she wanted an exercise bike. I remember 2 times when I asked for one either at xmas or my birthday, when I was younger. And just because she's thin to begin with, doesn't mean she's in very good shape, cardio-vascular-wise. Was there really a lot of hoopla about the ad, or did someone only want to make it seem that way? Trolls? I would think that the exposure, even if supposedly negative, would actually be a benefit to Peloton, not a drawback. I wasn't familiar with their company or product before. I saw the SNL skit (which briefly mentions Peloton at the end) before seeing the ad, and only looked up the ad after Qiao mentioned something about it.

Pelotón is Spanish for "platoon".

Oh, it also is a term used in bicycling. I wasn't familiar with that one.

But other than that, now I remembered why the word is familiar to me. It was the name of a secret organization in the TV series "The Tunnel".
