Trainer Suggestions
Hey Everyone!
Any suggestions on trainers for tadpole trikes? I know the Hostel Shoppe has a 20inch wheel adapter to fit a standard trainer. But has anyone come up with any new or innovative solutions. Please send pictures or drawings or any other info you have. I'm coming up with a new way to use a standard bike hanger, the type with the rope and two hooks that stores the bike up near the ceiling. Someone suggested using a deer hunting gambrel and some soft hooks to lift the front wheels and the regular hook to lift the rear at the rack. Anyone else have any suggestions? Happy Riding!!!

You really confused me with your discussion/proposal for tieing the wheels off the ground. I bought a single roller from from SportCrafters; was quite inexpensive compared to all other training mechanisms on the market. And then bought 2 Cyclop blocks to set the front wheels into for level and steadiness.
Works great and I get a great workout during the winter season.
