|   About to start riding indoors...how long until boredom? | Fez
Nov 12, 2002 9:14 AM | | I've never ridden indoors before. I set up the bike in front of the TV (combat boredom) and window (cool draft).
I usually ride 2 hours per ride outdoors. How long can I reasonably expect to ride before boredom and stagnant air/heat kill me?
Should I turn off the computer speed and distance functions because they will differ from a road ride? Should I just use the cadence and heart rate functions to replicate a good road ride? |
| 10 minutes tops. But if you can open a window, ride outdoors | cory

If you can stand to have a window open, though, you probably can ride outside. Darkness is a problem, but with even semi-appropriate equipment, it's not hard to ride in temperatures at least into the 20s. Check www.icebike.com or post again and someone can give you some advice. |
