I do a weekly session of about 80-90 mins. Do use a towel or possibly two draped across the bars to use to mop yourself and to stop salty sweat getting in to the headset etc. And plenty to drink!

You could be right Dan bo...look out for the second installment "I hate this effing turbo!!" Lol.
I have gone for the tacx satori. A bundle package off Decathlon. Looked pretty good in reviews and at risk of sounding all girly...it matches my bike!!

Thanks Ern1e...have just tracked it and it is coming today woohoo!!So I know what I will be doing this evening!!

I have a love/hate relationship with my Turbo.

I tend to be a Sufferfest man. It always makes me work really hard.

I'm just wondering whether to brave the CC's turbo training session this evening. Not tried it before, but I've got a free evening so may give it a go

If you're still enjoying it after 4 weeks, try harder!

Well so far so good...I have managed to put it together...put bike on and had quick bash...took some of the rubber off my tyre lol so tomorrow I am swapping the back tyre for an old one and I will do my first proper session!! Then I will come back here to cry lol. It came with a dvd which won't play on the dvd player and my laptop is buggered so may have to suss a workout out to follow. Any recommendations?
