Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Trainer Upgrade?

I have the opportunity to buy a used Cycleops Fluid trainer for $150 (might be Fluid 2, I'll find out when I go see it tomorrow). I currently have a Cycleops Wind trainer that is about 2 years old, works fine but is noisy. I ride the trainer about 3-4 times a week, including once a week with a group where the noise of the wind trainer can be a little annoying. I am looking for feedback on whether you all think the upgrade to a Fluid trainer is worth the $150. Thanks!
