Two minutes on the turbo trainer - see how far you can advance your speedo's mileometer due by wheel rotation in that time.

My best is 0.97 miles.

With the resistance. Go on see what you can do. Experience a new level of pain.

0. Then I realised the speedo is on the front wheel.

Is this the start of another 18000 mile farce?

I have a challenge for you: see if you can go for just one day without having at least 2 of your topics on the front page...

crazy-legs - I have another challenge for you - take what I write at face value like it is intended to be taken. You'll beat 0.97miles in 2mins surely.

Yeah, should really have put a ๐Ÿ˜‰ at the end of my post...

I don't have a turbo trainer, only rollers and given that they have zero resistance, it's easy to beat that target, I think it would count as cheating!

29.1 mph average over 2 mins is pish poor for a guy who rides 18000 miles a year. ๐Ÿ™‚

Sorry ISBI it's late and I am too old to risk a coronary on a pointless internet challenge.

So did you could turbo trainer miles in your "18K" figure ?
