Lena Dunham Had A Birthday Party At Spin Class

    The Girls creator threw a 26th birthday party on Sunday in which she forced her friends to exercise on stationary bikes. Sounds like, err...a blast?

    The gathering went down at über-trendy Soul Cycle, known for its celebrity clientele (Jake Gyllenhaal, Chelsea Clinton, tons of others) and the cult-like devotion of its patrons.

    Fun idea? Or torturous idea? Either way, Schmidt from New Girl (Max Greenfield) was there! (He actually just taught a class there for charity.)

    And some cute sweaty hipster friends too.

    I, for one, would prefer not to spend my birthday sweating in front of all my friends while seated on an uncomfortable indoor bicycle, but to each his own.
