Regular  128   Richmond |  Subject: I actually liked itI got my new Kurt Kinetic trainer last night so this morning I had my first ride. I had on Morning Joe on the T.V. and rode for about an hour and I enjoyed it. I could see some real possibilities for movies, football games, ect. I have plenty of good weather left in Richmond so I will be out as much as possible, but so many people on this site bash the trainer I thought I would post a positive experience if you are thinking about getting one. |

X2. Got mine a month or so ago and really enjoy it Or rather, I enjoy being able to ride at odd times, like watching SNF/MNF with my wife relaxing next to me (this way I get to work out BUT still be a part of the family! haha). My knee seems to get a little sore from it though. Will have to watch that. I sweat buckets though and feel that it gives a really solid workout! |

| New user 403 | Subject: RE: I actually liked it I like my trainer. Living in Minnesota, we have a few months that are less the optimal for out- door riding. My only complaint is that after a few months, I desperately want to get outside and ride. But with some creativity in workouts, I've been able to manage, and it feels great when I do get outside. |

| Member 57 | Subject: RE: I actually liked it I think the Kurt Kinetic is great. I've had mine a year and it looks and works like it was new. It does a pretty good job of simulating the feel of the road also. I run a small fan when I'm on mine and in order to hear the TV I have to double the volume. With no fan, I'd probably have to raise the volume 50%. My kids are usually jumping around the room so that may have something to do with the increased volume also. |
