Cycle Scape, downtown Walnut Creek’s first indoor cycling gym that we learned would be opening over the summer is now open. Check out their schedule here and pricing here. (When I stopped by there were postcards inside offering a free pass for a class). The cycling area for the 45 minute classes has plenty of Carbon Blue Schwinn stationary bikes and there is a weighted bar you can use to get a complete workout with the instructor at front. On the opposite wall are two giant video screens that show scenery from around the world, music videos, movies etc. The sound system is incredible. There are two private showers and plenty of locker space available. The copper accents inside are gorgeous; check out the photos below to see what I mean.

From their website:

Cycle Scape, Walnut Creek’s new indoor cycling boutique, helps you get an intense cardio workout on state-of-the-art Schwinn stationary bikes (Carbon Blue) in a luxurious, spa-like setting.

Cycle Scape will be the first boutique indoor cycling studio in Walnut Creek and one of the first to combine a mental component of inspirational coaching, great music, HD video and a full body workout on a bike using weights.  Riders will not only burn calories to a one of a kind playlist, get an intense 45 minute cardio workout, but they will also enjoy a party-on-wheels and leave their stress behind.

Each 45-minute class is a complete Workout

Thanks to a reader for sending word that RadioShack has closed in downtown Walnut Creek on N. Main St. This is not the only one in Walnut Creek that has closed as Claycord reports that the RadioShack in the Encina Grande Shopping Center on Ygnacio Valley Rd. has also closed.

What is the last thing you ever bought at a RadioShack? I bought a stereo cable adapter a few years ago and have checked out the Arduino kits they have but that’s about it.

After more than 33 years in business, (they have been at their current location since 1990), R. Brooks Fine Jewelry is closing for good after Christmas. There was a sale last weekend but I imagine there’ll be great deals going on throughout the month.

Thanks to a reader for sending word that CorePower Yoga is coming to downtown Walnut Creek. I have confirmed they are planning to open in the first quarter of 2015 somewhere near lululemon on S. Main St. where they currently offer yoga classes on Sundays. I’ve heard the second floor where Adib’s Persian Rug Company used to be although the location has not been confirmed yet. Check out their class descriptions here.

From their website:

CorePower Yoga strives to increase awareness and widespread adoption of yoga by making yoga accessible to everyone through a variety of yoga styles for beginners and more advanced yoga students, and class times to meet any schedule.

We believe in the physical, mental and spiritual benefits of yoga.
