Kinetics Road Machine. In my garage with the spiders. Put on the headphones and go. Or. Head to the studio and attend an indoor class, They use CycleOps Jet Fluids (FitFX Studio in Vancouver). Much better scenery and no spiders :) Pretty much comparable between the two trainers. The front wheel hold/riser is a little nicer with the CycleOps.

Cyclops Fluid 2, previous trainer was a Nahsbar brand. It had a pronounced lean that I could only get rid of by stacking magazines under on side, but it was cheap. The Cyclops is a great trainer, easy to set up and use and has given me no problems in the four years I've had it. I use to use the Carmichael training videos, they are good workouts but rather boring. Lately I've switched to The Sufferfest video series. Still a hard workout but much more entertaining video with good music. I travel…

Now I can watch it while spinning on a stationary trainer in the hotel gym.

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS';">No trainer - Spin bike at the gym with Led Zeppelin and Metallica on the iphone. The bikes have clip-less pedals and are fully adjustable, so I can get them dialed in fairly well. Sometimes I'll ride an hour before a spin class and then take the class too; those instructor ladies are brutal!! </span></p>

Tacx Satori trainer. I got it to replace a Kinetic Rock N Roll, needed something more compact. The Satori is pretty compact and has a remote for the resistance unit. The only real drawback is that it won't work with a cyclocross tire, the larger tires catch on the resistance unit. It comes with a tire block too that is used as a handle for transport.
