17/365 Jan 17, 2019. Recycled Pain

            We were gifted a very old Computrainer, which used to be the cream of the crop indoor cycling trainer decades ago. It's an early power-based trainer. 

We also found a 24" wheel kid's bike in the trash, missing wheels. I put a 26" rear wheel on, and a 700c front wheel, and we hooked it all up together. 

There was a huge learning curve, getting it all hooked up to a laptop, finding the right drivers, and getting the old cables working, but now we've got it up and running. You can race virtual racers, and even design your own course. 

It's really just for the kid. I hate riding trainers. But it's entertaining for him, and perhaps a fun way to train for BMX while it's raining.
