So after 5 or so weeks of riding in temps averaging around 5*F and tons of snow (were up to 234 inches...yea almost 20 FEET of snow) tomorrow were getting up to 45*F with rain. Mixed with all the melting snow, the roads are going to be horrible tomorrow. Looks like I will finally have to whip the trainer out. Only 4th time this year :)

It will be back to the cold (but clean) riding later this week.

I'd rather have the snow than the rain, but i ride outdoors in both.

On the topic of trainers.... Have any of you had experience with virtual reality trainers like Tacx or Computrainer? Any strong preferences? Likes, dislikes? I am considering making the investments, and want your collective wisdom! :)
