Re: Exercise bikes

Looks nice, Azz. My problem is that I don't like listening to music with earphones. Weird, I suppose, but having music inside my head instead of coming into it just doesn't feel right. It's difficult to read on the exercise bike, that would take care of the boring bit if I could .....

Re: Exercise bikes

All this talk of the bike got me back on it... 45 mins and just under 500 calories burnt.

I was intending to do just 20 - 30 mins, but the tunes on the walkman kept coming. The last one was Queens I want to break free - how could I not listen to that! (Hope nobody heard me singing along tho! )

But don't you need earphones for them too? That's my problem don't like earphones. I wonder if someone makes a holder-type thing that would fit on the handlebars to hold a real book? Anyone know?
