Winter Training

Monday, December 1st, 2008

Riding your bike in winter is a noble thought indeed, and sure people-watching is better than looking at your wall at home. But then again, at home there are no salt-induced pot holes, no cars sliding into you and no buses refusing to give you the right of way.

More than just riding in place, bike trainers are tougher than stationary bikes and can simulate flat or steep courses. A great way to get cardio when it’s too cold for the road or the gym.
