Indoor Trainer - Help Please - Page 3

That's true, but come Springtime they make crushing friends' will to live that much more satisfying.

LOL, that's my ultimate goal

Those are expensive! What's with all the extra paraphenalia there? Is that for changing resistance? I still ride a set of ordinary rollers that I bought in 1980 (the age shows on me, not the rollers).
My 11 year old daughter rides a mag-trainer (road bike) and the rollers (track bike), and prefers the rollers (different kind of effort, I know). She, and her fellow competitors, usually take their mag / wind / fluid trainers to races for scheduled warm-ups before the rides.
I have an intense dislike of riding either (yes, they should be reserved for those convicted of heinous crimes), but definitely prefer the rollers to the mag-trainer.

^ That's awesome.
I am going to my LBS tomorrow to get the Kurt kinetic trainer. The only thing is that I want to test it out and see how much noise it will make. My apartament is on 3rd floor and my floors are very thin, so I hope it won't be loud, or just all of the movement might make too much noise.

I agree. Rollers are very easy to ride, and a hell of a lot more "enjoyable" than stationary alternatives. Resistance, for what its worth, comes with cadence. Rollers rewards smooth pedalling action, and don't allow any insidious rests to sneak in there.

Rollers are all i use anymore. Much more fun, and the skills you develop translate to better riding.
