I'm chasing a turbo trainer for some winter training, I prefer the prospect of a dvd and some sweat. rather than falling off on forest hill in the dark and ice..
if anyone has one that's getting in the way, is unloved or unused..
please PM me or reply..

I think that just made my knees cry.
Fair enough but I can't imagine what DVD I'd watch though, maybe Rocky II  |

| I tried turbo sessions with DVDs, but these days I just put a big clock up on the computer screen and watch the second hand. |

To be fair, I think with a bit of practice and carefully building up to it, I could probably manage 50 metres a week. |
