I'm with the rest of you, rollers...scary I don't need to fall in the living room now do I? No, to each his own. I know someone who put rollers between to pillars to hold on when needed. Or maybe next to a wall.

Most people I know also plan that they will change their tires out once the season on the trainer ends...I like my trainer though (CycleOps) -- but I agree, I need the spinervals DVD to keep it going, and spinning with a buddy (my HB) helps ALOT. I put his bike slightly ahead of mine and I get a nice view then too ....teeeeeheeeee

As far as spinners, I am JG certified but I must confess, my fave is not the JG spinner it's the Lemond. Nice smooth ride...and now Coach Troy (spinervals) uses them interspersed and equates tension to the spinner as well.
