I forgot about this, but it deserves its own entry anyways.
Alli was chatting with a triathlete the other day, and he quite seriously asked her about wind trainers (for those that aren't quite initiated - these are the devices that we setup in our livingroom to turn our $4,000 road bikes into stationary bikes ;)
He says... "I once heard of a guy from Canada that rode for SIX HOURS STRAIGHT on his wind trainer - could this be true?"
It's funny, but unless you live in a climate where it snows, and gets to be a solid 40 degrees below zero, you would never fathom training that long indoors... in fact, this fellow has only used an indoor trainer a couple of times in his entire life.
Yeah... life is funny.

I rode for 6 hours straight during the Cops For Cancer Battle in the Saddle a couple of weekends ago. You can tell your Aussie buddy that he can drop in with me and do a winter spin any time he wants to (if he is suilly enough to come to Edmonton in February!)
