In 1982, I worked at Toga Bike Shop in Manhattan when we sponsored racers. Sometimes the racers would ride the rollers right next to me on the repair floor. One guy was so good at it, he could ride no-hands. He even removed his jersey over his head while pedaling.
Dirty little secret about riding rollers --- riding no hands looks impressive but is easier than riding hands-on.
