Had to look that up; never heard of that brand. Is that fluid trainer? I have a Cycle Ops trainer with the wedge. I hate riding on those inside. I'll brave the sub-freezing before I spend 5 minutes on a trainer. The front wheel wedge is essential. I basically bought the trainer for a steal and use it to adjust the seat post and seat when need be.
If you want to ride inside, rollers are the way to go. They will improve balance, cadence, and make you look pro.

I've got the Kinetic Rock and Roll trainer, which allows side/side movement. It's not the typical fixed style trainer. The resistance unit has both magnet/fluid. Like you, I got a great deal on this trainer since it was the first gen and they were trying to clear it out for the new model. I really like it, but need to get the turntable riser.

AZ has pleasant weather for much of the year, but I'd put riding in Jun-Aug in similar scale of Jan-Mar of New England.

I can ride all day in the winter, but it sucks at any time. Dressing is the hardest part; takes like 20+ minutes. Filling the water bottle up with hot water and initial burning face from the cold. The roads get narrower with snow and ice. Washing the bike off in the shower...

yea most of the time I am done by 9. But I have ridden longer rides ending closer to noon. As long as you drink enough and keep moving your good. When you stop at a stop light it heats up real quick.
I find it hard to ride in the cold. Anything lower than 45 and I am probably not going lol. I guess I just need better gear. I hate the cold getting to my core, and my fingers and toes freezing. lol

Riding in the winter is more a badge of honor; like a Lotus Elise as a daily driver.

Been riding some. Still on the colder side around Boston, but managing to ride every week or so. Just did up the garage with some bike art. Automobile stuff is slated for later this season. Washed the bike last week as well.

These are all stock manufacturer posters. I have a few more, but that was enough for now. I need to balance it with some auto stuff at some point. I want to paint the garage, but it's been too cold out. Hopefully next month I can pain the garage: This is the only autmobilia object so far; a Lotus banner: ![]()

Speedplay pedals? I am probably moving to those shortly when I buy new shoes. I'm on SPD-L right now, but I like the Speedplay form factor. A neighbor of mine just switched and he is raving about it.

I would buy Speedplay's again. The float is really nice, easy to get in, but they aren't the only show in town. I more particular to have Campagnolo than which pedal I am using... Not that Campy is better, but I like it more and is about the passion.

I've never road biked - only mountain. Picked up a used Trek Project One over the weekend - going to start training to ride 100 miles for fundraising for Cancer research. Bike store estimated this might be as old as 2000 but it sure doesn't look like it!
