    I'm a fat guy with little skills there would be holes in the walls and I would get broken. The mag trainer I have now works it just is so loud the whole house rumbles when used. It only lasted a few years.

    Like Mud whistle said, rollers, after a couple of days on them you'll be a better rider in addition to being fitter.

    Hey HRC Nick - skip the trainer - there is a lot for sale down the road from my house. I rode my bicycle a few miles on my mini moto track yesterday :up:

    I have rollers that I ride every week.
    I'm also looking at buying the Kinetic Rock & Roll trainer.
    Anyone try one yet?

    I chucked the trainer and bought a cycleops indoor cycle, best set up. Quiet, has a powermeter, small, set up all the time so no dragging my bike in and wondering if its gonna spit lube on the floor. I got it cheap on craigslist and sold my trainer for what I paid almost. If you have kids, the trainer is loud, even the fluid ones.
