Meanwhile, folks like me are in way better shape (probably??). I don't really see the whole riding outside in winter or in the dark as a badge of honor like some, and I race CX in some pretty gnarly conditions. Having my smart trainer allows me to do really focused riding when I don't have a ton of time to spend getting ready to go out. Apologies for the tone, it's just getting to the point of the year where people want to stay in shape over winter and there's many ways to achieve that, and I don't think it's necessarily helpful when year round outdoor people get on their high horse, especially when the crux of the original post is asking about indoor training.
