looking for a bike trainer to rent in Ashburn, VA

I hope someone can help with this request

Next week I'm traveling from California to Virginia (Ashburn) on business trip. I'll stay in VA for ~2 weeks. I'll be able to take my bike, but bike trainer is a bigger issue (mostly because of weight). So, I'm looking to rent a trainer instead of shipping it (or carrying it with me).

I called couple bike shops in the area but they are not willing to rent, just want to sell .

If someone from BF in the area can rent a trainer for a fee from 10/25 to 11/04 I would appreciate it.

Thank you!

Computrainer classes, in Herndon, just around the corner from ashburn. place is accessible via the WO&D trail.

Host website. I dont know if susan rents trainers or computrainer time independent of the classes, but she's a really nice person so you could call/email and ask.

Second Susan's indoor sessions in Herndon. 7.5 miles via the W&OD trail from the Ashburn Rd crossing (MP 27.5) to the Herndon Canter caboose (MP 20). Turn left at the stop sign onto Station St, it's on the left in the pink building between Med. Breeze and Great Harvest Bread. Her indoor classes start this week. Bring a skewer suitable for a trainer if you have one, she sells them but stopped loaning as too many people rode off with them!

Also look into the MABRA-USCF list for local racers who may have a trainer to loan/rent.

DAMN! i moved to az from herndon 4 years ago. I miss riding the W0&D, although it would probably drive me nuts when its busy. I particularly miss that great harvest. we have one out here, but i liked the atmosphere at the herndon one.
