    I do one-legged drills on the trainer- livens up the "hamster wheel" workouts and no falling issues

    Yeah; I'm not a big fan of doing one-legged drills on the road. I typically save that kind of thing for the spin bike or trainer.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    Great idea - and since I've promised myself a trainer for my Christmas present to myself... Not that they are my favorite things but even if I like winter riding, there will be periods this winter when I won't want to ride.

    I still fight the urge to coast downhill - though I find that I am far more comfy pedaling downhill now that I'm attached to the bike. I need to get accustomed to shifting into the big chain downhill though.

    Here's what you need for winter riding:


    Then you won't need a trainer, which you say isn't your favorite thing anyway.
    Not sure about single leg drills in snow boots on this baby, though...
