Yeah...I thought about it...my rich friend at work has a computerized one that cost him $1,700 where it shows the course he's riding on his computer screen and replicates the drag to the grade of te roads he's seeing on the laptop but he also rides a $10K trek Madone...me?...I'd ride in the rain before I'd pedal in my living room! LOL!
And I dang sure ain't spending that sort of cash on a trainer. LOL!
But you just made an interesting comment....am I supposed to be taking 2-3 days off in between rides?...I've been trying to get at least a little in everyday if not a lot in every other day and screwing around with test/adjust rides in between...but I want to ride everyday...am I in fact just asking too much of my old diabetic chicken legs?
