You asked, "Have you had any luck finding time to go to Village Bicycle for a computrainer ride?"
No...haven't even been on my own trainer (pretty pathetic...I know)!! Just started another home improvement project so that's been eating up any spare time. If I can get on my own trainer a few times and not kill my knees, then I'll think about going.
Martinator, I use my Garmin Edge 305 with the GPS turned off. It picks up the data from the rear wheel sensor. Seems pretty close to what the computrainer measures. I do keep a tally of my trainer miles separate from my outdoor miles, and I keep track of time spent on the trainer as well. S
Another girl addicted to cycling! Blogging to help set goals for myself, record stats and have a place to share pics from my rides.
I’m working on building speed and skills. Not sure I’ll have the nerve to try racing. Jeff, my DH, tells me to “Dig Deep into my Handbag of Recklessness”, but I don’t see him racing either… Our main goal has been to keep up on fast-ish group rides.
When I’m not biking, I’m playing with my two silly dogs, a very fuzzy cat that seems to be allergic to his own coat, cooking yummy dishes (generally within the amount of calories I’ve burned on the bikes), making/drinking lattes, avoiding other forms of exercise as much as possible (though I must get better about upper body strength training), knitting, reading, viewing some TV (if it’s mysteries or certain comedies or news)…

How does one measure miles on a trainer?
