[QUOTE 3904897, member: 76"]The summer has been long and sunny, and all the riding outside. This evening though, as the night was darker sooner and I was running late, I thought I would dust off the rollers for the winter ahead.
Well, all went well for a while, then quick as you like.......woomph! I was laid on the garage floor and more than a bit messed up. Luckily I missed the motorbike and only hit the floor. I am now laid on the sofa with a bag of peas on my knee and a sore elbow! Bloody hell

One word - turbo!

I've never ended up on the garage floor, though I know someone who has.

I know someone who ended up in hospital, having come of a turbo.

How on earth did they do that?

He's not entirely certain himself. One minute he's "giving it all" the next he's being seperated from the bike now on the floor, with front end wrecked.

That's one way to make rollers/turbos interesting. When I tried I did find them sooooooooo boooooooooooring

Same here, one minute I'm pedalling away next thing someone's head is beneath me - not fixed in right.
