Summer's over (sob!)
I cleared some space and clamped my panasonic DX-2000 into the wind trainer "Hampster Wheel" tonight.

For the next 5 months, nothing but staring at the map of everyplace I've been this year while I spin the pedals...

Yech. I HATE indoor cycling!

2. Do something useful then
I talked a cow-orker of mine into powering his washing machine with his bike. Rig up something to drive the machine from the back wheel and you are set. Besides doing something useful with your energy (I am in the same boat here in Missouri) you will save electricity.

I am lookin at doing the same thing with my Trek 4900.

3. I could maybe power a Piss-Ant's PDA?
We're not talking Kilowatts here...

If I were to shroud and duct the fans.....I could do away with the box fan blowing on me!
