Dear Richard: 
 
 RG> Steven I wish you luck on the bike trainer. by the way which kind is 
 RG> it and what type of bike do you own? Have you looked at the  road 
 RG> bike magazine? The all bid Indurain a happy retirement. Too bad he 
 RG> will be missed. I think he gave up too quickly. One tour loss isn't 
 RG> a reason to retire, but instead a chance to make changes in 
 RG> training. 
I'm not planning to buy a bike trainer (I assume you mean an indoor one).  
My regular bike is a '94 Trek Multitrack 730 (their low-end hybrid).  I 
had some time today to prepare it for starting morning rides this week (at 
last!).
I'm also sorry to see Indurian leave but if he felt it is time to stop, it 
is time to stop.  He can certainly be proud of his acheivements.  It is 
very difficult to maintain that level of performance and conditioning for 
long and there is something to be said for knowing that sometimes it is 
best to quit while you're ahead.   
Tailwinds to you,
Steve
