  3. I actually have one and used to use it religiously! Then we put it away for a party and it never made it back to the living room! I'll have to start again!
    It really does get your heart pumping!
    All the best,

  5. I used to have one too. It made me get motion sickness when I tried to use it though so I sold it on eBay.
