A new love...will it last?

[Easytigers]

Well today was a busy day! The afternoon was setting up the new turbo trainer as the weather is heading south...think Antarctic! I've never used one before so was a bit apprehensive. Got it all set up and actually liked it (it was a real shame as the weather today was actually quite nice but I was desperate to get it working). Apart from the fact that I was actually melting, I felt that it was a better workout than my normal cycle...I had to pedal all the way!!!

Will it last???

Nope. Well, you did ask.

Didn't think so...need to be able to keep my mind active at the same time!

Options:
Read a good book - get the pages soggy!
Watch netlix - probably drop the tablet!
Read my cycling magazine - soggy problem and the fact that it makes me feel like I need more money!

Hmmm??

Maybe!
Music helps .... a lot.
I found the first 10-15 mins were a struggle and then I'd get into some kind of rhythmic zone and then it was OK . I've loaned it to a lad who's racing at the mo, but when the garage is a bit more sorted (like that will happen) I'd quite like it back. Good therapy.

Do you commonly use the phrase "the weather is heading south", up there in the Northern Hemisphere? Why not "the weather is heading north", i.e. Arctic conditions are coming?
Just curious, by the way, not trying to be rude.

Have fun with the turbo trainer, anyway.

The Artic is to the North of us, and the weather/conditions there are headed our way, South.

try not to confuse the Chap From The Colonies....North is ALWAYS up, regardless of where you are in the world.....We made the maps in the first place, so it must be so....

This seems like a very sensible idea! Who'd have thought that the fan would be out in the winter?
