Am I missing out by not having a turbo trainer? I either ride out or I do nowt. Hmm...

No you are not. It takes a special kind of demented sole to manage many rides on them...

Before I had a turbo the weather had to be really bad to stop me going out on the bike.after i got the turbo any sign of rain and I would just use the turbo.It's just not the same so I had to be more strict with myself and only use it when the weather is really bad

Lol.......don't do it. It will end up lying in a spare room or at the back of your garage like my exercise bike. Even when I couldn't ride, I still only managed about four rides on it.

Your exercise bike is at the back of my garage?? How on earth did it get there???

I think there is even a thread somewhere in the cafe about an American who is trying to sure them because drinking loads of it did not give him wings!

Do you guys add the turbo trainer miles to your tally for the year, or do you just count the miles you do on the road? I suppose a person can do what he likes really....just wondering what you do!

 

[Nigelnaturist]

Your right. They are torture machines . On the hand, the weather forcaster here announced last night that the wet weather is due to last for months so it looks like i'll be using it quite a lot for the forseeable future, and in between using it and the rain, i'll be walking a couple of miles as and when i can.

Weren't they saying it would be snowing by now just a few weeks ago, I really wouldn't trust any long term forcast beyond the 4-5 days and only then if I can be bothered to look at the weather charts.

I think it has to do with coming from Yorkshire, something like being a bit tight.
@sutts don't use one just ride, come rain or shine.
