BOSTON — Veterans got to take a spin on the USS Constitution this week.

Home Base, a Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital program, got veterans together as part of the Warrior Health and Fitness Program for a spin class aboard Old Ironsides Wednesday.

Nearly 30 veterans mounted spin bikes on the deck of the historic warship for a workout.

The spin class was put on by Rev'd Indoor Cycling.

The organizers included Home Base’s Warrior Health & Fitness Program Coordinator and Strength & Conditioning Coach Ryan Vander Weit; and Commissioner of Veteran Services for the City of Boston, Giselle Sterling.
