turbo trainer a few strange questions (maybe)

[Shortandcrisp]

That's 14.6 miles per hour for 2 bikes for 12.5 hours with no breaks, not even to change riders. You need to test to see if 15 plus mph is possible no matter what resistance setting is used.

Should be ok, depends on the resistance levels on the exercise bike. On my old turbo trainer I was able to cruise along at 25mph on a low setting, watching the miles fly by.

That's one of the main reasons why I don't like magnetic trainers because you can cheat too easily. My fluid trainer has a defined power curve and no settings, so you can guarantee a good correlation between the "distance covered" (in inverted comnas) and the workout you get.
