Hey.. for anyone in the House who will be stuck inside on the "death-trainer", check out TrainerRoad.com. Essentially, you can use an Ant+ device and a Ant+ USB into your computer to broadcast your data onto the computer/TV (if you ahve it hooked up). They offer some cool training rides that are based off of your FTP... 

So it might be something to take a look at this winter... I got the USB online for $28. So it is a cheap way to train without having to fork over thousands for a computrainer! 

They are also on twitter and have been really great answering questions!

It is really cool. You can run the program and still watch the movie of your choice. And I you have technical issues, try are very supportive. What kind of trainer do you have???

this is great Kevin!  Thanks!  I've been waiting for Cycleops to release their virtual training software but this sounds like it may be a better way to go.
