Cross country skiing and transforming an outdoor bike to an indoor bike
Hi Montreal,
After a long gorgeous summer of biking outdoors, I don't want to give up outdoor exercise entirely so I thought I'd try skiing on the mountain. This brings up a few questions: I have a tight budget but I want to buy a pair of skis. Nothing fancy. Basic, used is fine. Also, what do I need to have in order to ski. I have knee problems, is skiing a bad idea? I've got a damned if you do damned if you don't attitude and would rather be in pain and fit than in pain and unfit.
Where do I get an apparatus to stabilize my outdoor bike to ride it indoors? Is this a good way to go? I have a gym membership but sometimes I just want to bike 20 mins here and there without having to make the trip to the gym.
Thanks in advance
