I'm simply to old, creaking and distrustful of cold roads to ride much at the moment... So I set the rollers up.
Just for a hoot I put my fixopholous on them. I can now report that for a rider of modest ability this is not a good idea. It was not unlike vague teenage memories of being slightly drunk, but with fear added for good measure.
I'm now using a 'proper' bicycle on the rollers and it's going OK.
I imagine track cyclists train on rollers with fixed. Do you have to be a little bit simple to try it, or just a good rider? It really threw me, in more than once sense of the phrase.
