grawk Posted January 7 Report Posted January 7 ok, this is head case :), what do you mean by inexpensive? I found it almost impossible to motivate myself to ride a purely mechanical trailer. Just got bored. I would get any trainer that would connect to zwift, and would read https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/11/trainer-recommendations-winter.html to get an idea about what the options are. 2 1
philodox Posted January 7 Report Posted January 7 (edited) Haha, there are always budget options. I usually go for end gmae stuff, but bills and all that. Thanks for the link, I'll have a look later tonight. Edited January 7 by philodox
n_maher Posted January 8 Report Posted January 8 Dan's advice is solid. I got the Kickr on black Friday so it's a bit more now but is the bottom of the range direct drive model they make. I decided to get what i needed instead of what i might want. 1
TMoney Posted January 11 Report Posted January 11 After mornings outside when the temps are in the 30s I could get used to going out when it is already 70 at dawn in Hawaii. 9

n_maher Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 In better, and somewhat hilarious news... I'm especially fond of the 14,000 vs. fewer than 40 metric. Tell me how your bill failed without saying your bill failed... 2 1
TMoney Posted February 1 Report Posted February 1 (edited) Slowly but surely continuing to improve. I've got a long way to go before I can challenge Nate for FTW (w/kg I have no chance), but its amazing how much a little bit of regular riding improves your cardio. Edited February 1 by TMoney 8
n_maher Posted February 2 Report Posted February 2 Hell yeah, Adam! The only advice I have is get after it and as someone else I follow on Strava would say, "This suffering is a privilege." Well, maybe one more thing - don't ever worry about comparisons to others. One of my good friends from 30+ years ago rides 8,000+ miles a year (pilot) and when he rides centuries with us barely breaks 140bpm at 50+ years old. I just can't be him. I'm a year younger but have always outweighed him by 40lbs even when we're both fit. He also doesn't know how to have fun, so as usual balance is the answer. 4
