I might try the nearby gym and use their stepper and elliptical machines.

And I'm still using my old Centurion Ironman steel bike on the indoor trainer. I don't need to keep my head up constantly. Terrible form but at least I can stretch and massage my neck without worrying about squirrels or errant drivers.

I'm considering converting one of my carbon fiber road bikes to a more upright hybrid. I already have a steel frame hybrid set up that way which is okay, but the frame has always been a bit too large for me. I'll probably keep another carbon frame in drop bar configuration for the occasional torture session, or in case there's some miracle cure for my neck.
