What you need, in addition to the trainer, is a DVD player, earphones
and a long wire.
The long wire is a nuisance and potentially a safety hazard.
Get wireless headphones.
Maybe it's better to just figure out ways to deal with the grotty weatwher.
A little experimentation here & there, incrementally figuring out
what works and what doesn't, and capitalizing on those in-between
times when the weather is cyclably viable. Really uncycleable
grotty weather doesn't usually last too long anyways. If we're
talking about /months/, then yeah, sure, the wind trainer might be
worth considering, maybe supplemented with rollers. If it's just
for a couple of weeks, it might be like getting a big ol' air
conditioner just for half of the hottest summer month.
Temperate climate winters can afford other possibilities to which
one can adapt. I've become rather fond of (basic, just for fun)
ice skating, in my admittedly inept & fumbling manner. I don't
know how that translates into cycling training, but at least it
keeps one moving, under one's own steam.
cheers,
Tom
