i agree with whoever said that rollers are tougher to ride than being on the road. you're battling boredom, balancing without inertia, constantly pedaling.

For some reason, i can ride 20 miles on the road much easier than 5 miles on rollers.

Is there anyone who agrees??

ride on, riders


I agree 100%

I live in Arizona also but I'm further north, Prescott, and it is freaking cold! Today our high was 34 or 36 not much warmer. I don't have room for the rollers inside so if I want to get a workout on them, well... it's mainly the wind while on the rollers.
