This information dates from my Brit days a few million years ago, so it could be outdated.
As for trainers, I set one up last year and rode it three times before dying of boredom. The space where it was last year is now occupied by a rather nice leather couch, and have not thought out where I would put it this year. I am also too lazy to change out the tire on the bike, so trainer is gathering dust in the basement waiting for me to concede defeat and cut my losses with a kijiji sale.
Anyone out there who wants to make me an offer on an almost new trainer? I can always go and find it and look up the brand.
Yeah, I realized it this AM that I misspelled Telly--just didn't bother to fix it. I lived in England during my teens(14 to 18) and should've automatically spelled it correctly.

No Ipod. I won't buy or use an Ipod or Itunes. For some reason I loathe Itunes and Ipods. I have a Sansa Mp3 player. I'll likely be returning the trainer Monday. It was just a loaner for the run of crappy weather. I will likely get a trainer eventually, next year perhaps, just so I can still ride during strings of foul weather and still ride if I decide to get the Carpel Tunnel surgery on my left hand next year.
