I'm thinking of really doing my part for Swan Cycles and doing outdoor
winter night trainer rides in my warm winter clothing, with my Night
Rider light, and on my trainer, all to be purchased at Swan Cycles.

I would be very interested in orginizing a regular
group trainer ride during the winter.  Suffering in
tandem would be a good way to beat the boredom.  Plus,
no one gets dropped.  Wayne
