It's amazing how closed-minded and judgemental people can be here. Everyone has their own goals with their own ways of achieving them. I certainly wouldn't do 5 hours on a trainer, but if someone feels that they can benefit from that, then great for them. Saying that such a person doesn't "understand how to live life properly" is just asinine. Why so intolerant? Relax and worry about yourself.I meant it more as light-hearted ribbing, not serious intolerance! Just proselytizing a little about my belief that the joys of cycling/triathlon are largely about getting outdoors and challenging yourself against people, not staring at a Trainerroad graph in the garage.....sometimes the trainer has benefits: testing, targeted workouts, crappy weather. I'm just trying to hold the line against its encroachment into everyday training. It must be stopped before it's too late.
