    I joined too. Bit disconcerting it's listing TE as my primary club.
    I prefer to be unattached.

    Now how does one go about logging "miles" on a trainer? I only look at my time-exertion level. I have my heart rate monitor and a stop watch on the trainer. Odometer is not hooked up on my trainer bike.

    Before I installed a computer, I estimated my distance based on time-exertion, and cadence. I simply estimated how far I would have gone on my average outdoor route at a given exertion/time/cadence level on the trainer. Then I subtracted 10% just in case I was overestimating.
    Once I installed an old computer on the trainer bike, I found my estimations were reasonably accurate. But it's still a rough estimate.
