The day includes spin classes from 3 to 6 p.m. (in one-hour intervals at 3, 4, 5, and 6 p.m.) followed by a community party at 7 p.m. with tickets priced at $25.

The business was ransacked on July 30 and the perpetrator left with roughly $34,000 in product according to Peterborough Police.

Full Tilt Cycle released the following statement the day after the incident:

“Dear amazing Full Tilt Community, after eight years of being proud members of downtown Peterborough we feel disrespected and at a loss! On Monday evening, Sadie and her daughter walked into our studio for our first ride of the day to find our studio broken into and ransacked.

Our merchandise, bike supplies, electronics, cleaning supplies and even personal shoes and all our towels were GONE. Our front desk area was pillaged and a mess was left in our studio that has been nothing but a safe and happy place. We are overwhelmed with frustration and feeling our sanctuary to many of you, has been violated. We are dealing with the Peterborough police and Ashburnham Realty to find the perpetrator. We will post more when/if we get footage of the culprit(s).”

The suspect was found and arrested by Peterborough Police on Friday. They discovered them among several people sleeping outside in the Water Street and Murray Street area.
