turbo trainer or spin bike

[Deleted User]

Unfortunately mine cost £50 a go so I use a cheap one for the trainer, might look into a Rubino as the Michelin I have is about to turn to thread - thanks for that TR

they're only about £12 from wiggle (the ones that come in different colours), you'll be able to turbo on one all winter no probs.

I can't understand why people use turbos in summer though - just get out and ride

Because the missus isn't back from work, and leaving the house with the kids asleep in bed and the oven on tends to be regarded as irresponsible these days.

Agree with the sentiment though - I'd rather be outon the roads.

I did think a tturbo trainer tyre would be a smart move. Just have to part with the readies now.... the hard bit

TTrainer easily!  You need to simulate same position you will be in during races as much as possible.  Although saying that, make sure you have a towel or sweat-catcher on the bike during the long winter rides.
