If I can figure out where to put her winter gear (may need to buy some storage boxes, but I never learned to fold clothes to her satisfaction) I could probably use it, assuming it still works.
The stationary bike itself is older than I am, it's from the '60s or '70s.
It should work as long as you can get it to good mechanical condition, friction pad works, and can make it fit you comfortably. Should raise your heart rate to 120 beats per minute and you'll get good cardio!
