Hello.

The weather is getting worse here, and when I woke up it was still dark.

I am going to invest in some rollers or a turbo trainer so I can keep the miles up when I want to stay indoors. I don't necessarily think riding through storms and the like is that good for you.

Which one do you use? If you have just started on rollers, how have you found it? I have used them in the past, but it was years ago.

    Turbo is easier.

    I'd hire one before you buy tbh. Training indoors is so boring.

    I agree, riding on a trainer is boring. But so is being bedridden because you broke your hip sliding on ice.

    I stay at my dad's when I am at work. It is at the top of an ungritted hill. Things get interesting coming downhill sometimes.
