Winter Fitness
Trainers: Trainers are a great way to keep up your fitness. A Bicycle Trainer
allows you to ride your bike inside. The most common Trainers easily hook to the
back of your favorite bike so there is no need to worry about balance. Trainers
come in a variety of brands and styles to fit your needs. You can get a great
workout in when the weather is nasty or when the daylight isn't lasting long enough.
Rollers: Rollers also allow you to ride your inside but they can give a more road
like feel as you balance your bike on top of them. They can be a little harder to learn
but many cyclists insist on them.
Worried about what to do while you ride your trainer?
We have the new Carmichael Training Systems Cycling Workout DVD's.
Keep track of your efforts with a heart rate monitor.
We carry Sigma, Nike, and Polar heart rate monitors!

Okay, maybe we should say "Off Season Fitness" or "Bad Weather Fitness". You don't have to go out in the cold to stay in shape when the weather is bad. Some of us never get time to ride in the daylight(To bad we have to work). Trainers are the answer. Train for your next race or that spring 100 miler or just so that golf course hill at Stoney Creek doesn't bother you anymore. Check out all the options...
