I’ve been on my bike trainer since October, and headed out earlier today for my first real road ride of the season. In honor of that, I thought I’d chat a bit about my bike trainer riding over the past six months.
First things first- stats! I biked 578 miles this winter on my bike trainer, which is a huge amount of miles for not moving from the same place! I set a new bike trainer PDR of 30 miles this past January, but most of my rides were between 10 and 20 miles.
I watched several movies, TV shows, and read a few books during my time on the bike trainer this winter as well, which I think is my saving sanity during those months. I actually feel a little sad when I hit the road again that I can’t read and bike at the same time!
Maybe the craziest stat of all though: TWO- the number of times I came close to falling off my bike trainer, catching myself on the way down. I really don’t know how this happened, and I wish I could have a video of it (I’m sure I’d laugh!), but I don’t.
Bike Trainer riding and road biking feel totally different to me, but I’m sure glad that I have my bike trainer to keep me going throughout the winter months and keep my paces up for summer!
How do you keep track of how many miles you ride on the trainer?
