Music, new music, inspirational music. Invest in some new music that makes you want to grow. Turn it up, dream, fantasize, sweat.

I usually watch the extreme channel, usually around 11 a.m. and watch a mountain bike show when I'm on the stationary bike. Nothing beats actually cycling outside but I might try mountainbiking in the snow this winter. I saw a few at morningside park where I run lasts winter so maybe its worth a try. M |

Hey! The trainer, yes... is rather boring. I find that when you watch television while watching it, time goes really slow. Reading though (Im in University, and have to read a ton) seems to make training indoors just fly by. Try it! Read some cycling books, or something. It's great. Try it out, you'll never know.
