I use my old aluminum time trial bike with a beat up set of wheels. A wheel on trailer will chew through tires, so if you don’t have a pile semi worn tires to go through, then get a dedicated trainer tire. They grip the roller better, don’t make a mess and are a little quieter.

I ride indoor trainer during worst of winter weather, which fortunately around here only amounts to about to 15-20 times during the winter. I hate riding indoors but Zwift has made it much more bearable and I can do 1-2 hour rides whereas, old school I’d max out after 30-45 minutes. I don’t really consider it a game so much, although there are levels, achievements, etc, but I don’t pay attention to that stuff.
