I havent been using my trainer because of the sheer boredom instead Ive been on a stationary bike all winter. Is there a reason I should be on a trainer rather than a stationary? If there is a good reason I will try to make it happen. Ive been going to the gym to use the stationary and then lifting to bulk up a little.

The only difference is that you can use exactly the same bike on a trainer so you stay accustomed to the geometry. Otherwise, no.

yeah ive been doing a workout lately on the trainer that Chris Carmichael came up with in Bicycling magazine and realized how much i miss the road. Not to mention that this workout kicks my butt.

Get rollers and work on your form and technique.
