And riding the 9.8 miles to work on the single-speed outfitted w/ slicks.... Gets you pumped up for
the day like _nothing_ else I know of (No Rimmer, not even "that" !-)

Good thing I have a "spare" car to leave at each end for the days I don't want to ride both ways.

I don't know, prehaps the character building part are 6:00am hair fashions.

It's character building to just get out out bed and go to a frickin' exercise class first thing in
the morning.

Yeah, I guess. It's always the hardest activities that they say build character. Or whatever.

I used to spin over the winter 4 days/week at 5am. Everybody said I was crazy. OK, go on, so what's
the point?

WEIRDO! I do 6am rides because I need to get to work at that time, but I sure wouldn't be up at that
time to train! I'd vastly prefer an early evening/dusk ride for training.

Ooops, missed the fact that that was "trainer" not "training" Now you're even more of a weirdo. If
you must ride - at any hour - do it on a real bike in real terrain - road or dirt whichever you
prefer, but do it for real.

Guess you missed the whole point. The trails are like thick soup right now. I'd rather ride the
trainer (and watch tv or listen to music at the same time) than to go out and do damage to the
trails I love by riding in the mud. The trails have to be given a chance to recover from this
relatively harsh winter we have been having. Its called using some common sense. We did, however, go
out for a trials session last night, the weather finally settled a bit.

And I am not a weirdo...

Sitting and pedalling a trainner at any time and looking at four walls a ceiling

and enjoy sounds, smells,sights,and life. Don't forget that flat tire.

No riding when the trails are like chunky soup...and I did manage one day to blow out my tire on the
trainer...

It is just not always possible to do it on a real bike on real terrain. Injuries, schedules, snow,
rain, kids ... it is just not always possible.

Sorry, didn't know about the mud and the winter. I take back the weirdo. Down Here we are in the
midst of one of the worst droughts on record, so I've actually forgotten what mud looks like. Our
trails are so hard baked by sun that you could do donoughts in a tank and wouldn't scratch the
surface. I appreciate you not riding in the mud, too many doing that gives mtn bikers a bad name.
Though I do confess to riding in the rain once, it was a trail I'd travelled over 200Kms to get to,
and then it chose to rain, and since this trail is an unknown, almost never used trail in a tiny
outback town (1100 population) the damage done by our bikes (the only ones the trail had seen in a
long time - in fact I suspect the only ones on the trail since the last trip WE made there) would be
pretty minor, and quickly repaired by nature itself, especially as the trail in question was
actually a fire trail for fire vehicles, that was marked and mapped and sign posted for bike riders.
And having travelled so damned far to ride the trail, I wasn't going to turn back unless I felt it
would harm the trail, and I seriously doubt in the situation that it would, but we did check with
the trail manager first.

Mind you the whole idea of riding on a trainer fascinates me, I really want to try that some day to
see how the balance etc works when the bike isn't actually moving.

It's like the plan I've heard some person has to build a MASSIVE, and I mean MASSIVE disk TILTED on
a huge hill, and motorise this disk so that it rotates, and get people to pay to ride "down" the
upward moving side of the disk so that they have a never ending downhill ride. And if they do ride
faster than the disk then they get carried back to the top on the other side of the disk. This idea
intriques me, as in theory the bike isn't actually moving, so do the technicalities change re.
balance, etc. And what happens when you go over the jumps etc, the bump is actually passing up under
you, you aren't actually moving, so do you get much air, etc. etc. Also how does moving from the
inner circle to the outer circle affect the ride, because the outside of a disk moves faster than
the inside of the disk, so the speed the ground is moving underneath you would change, so your speed
would need to change, and the only way to do that might actually be to PEDAL down the hill. In the
winter he intends to make it a never ending downhill ski slope as well. But I suspect the cost to
build this thing would make it VERY VERY expensive to ride on, and I know one won't be built near
me, as we have irregular winters, and WAY WAY WAY TOO SMALL a population of bikers who'd ever
consider paying for riding.

It's also character building to sit down with a sheet of A4, a pen, a set of dice, and a TSR AD&D
book or 3.
