I want to buy either a home model of a spinner bike, or a used
commercial model. I don't want to spend over $300. I've seen a Johnny
G sport or a Forza Spin bike for about that much. Does anyone know how
they are?

Can anyone sell me something?

Why, dude?

I love spinners. Its a great and quickly indoor workout. I've been
riding for the past 24 years of my life and love it. I wouldn't trade
it for anything. But, to stay in shape for biking, when I don't have
time, I've found that crosstraining on a spinner is ideal. I've used
trainers and rollers and the spinners are better, already set up,
sturdier, firmer and give you more possibilities indoors.

You shouldn't be sorry about this. there are other things to be sorry
about. We can be sorry that Bush is still in power. I can't even have
sex anymore. any time I think of bush, then I start thinking of Bush
and then it ruins it. I tried coming out of the closet and thinking of
[censored] instead. But, as you can see, it doesn't work either.

Because, man, those things are going, like, nowhere fast.

Fair 'nuff. I have a recumbent stationary cycle available to me in the
exercise room at my work. I have tried it, and although I like seeing
my watts output in real time and being able to arbitrarily set the
resistance at the pedals, when I try the thing out I immediately
overheat. Dumping a kW or so of electricity into a noisy fan would
probably help-- but on a real bike I make my own wind for free.

Admittedly, I have more understanding about the appeal of indoor
cycling now that I live acclimatized to Seattle, where for two-thirds
of the year outdoor cycling is a grim practice. In the dark season, I
harken to the call of beer and coffee instead of stationary bikes,
though. Either of those things can help me muster the courage to ride
into the icy drizzle that awaits me outside.

You really should keep that stuff to yourself. Now it's in _my_ brain
where it might pop up at an inopportune moment! Eeecch. ;^)

Local health club with spinner classes decided to drop them & unloaded
their bikes to membership via silent auction. We picked one up for
about $200, in great shape. This plus some Spinnerval DVDs can get you
through unrideable weather. Might not be easy to achieve your fit set
up. Different crank length. Easier than real bike (you have to really
push it, which is where the DVDs are useful). I'd rather have a
Computrainer and GPS data from my favorite rides.

I have a Johnny G in Atlanta for sale. Where do live.

Texas? We're contemplating a move there. Is there "cycling" in El Paso?
As in, roads to ride and traffic that isn't a total threat to health
and well-being? Email is ok if you prefer. Thanks, D-y

El Paso is great for cycling. Lots of open roads with no traffic. It is
sunny and warm year around. On weekends, there are abouts 100 to 200
people that leave from a couple of gathering spots for rides that range
from a short 15 miles to a long 70 to 100 miles. You will find people
of all levels riding everywhere, especially in the west side, upper
valley area. whenever you are getting ready to visit, email me at
andresmuro @aol.com. you can also give me a call. Send me an email and
I'll give you my tel.

If you like riding, running and other hot weather sports, El Paso is
great. there are lots of places to run on trails too.
