Hi,
I just wanted to share how I have my trainer set up this year.
I ride the rollers one day and then the fluid trainer (spinnervals) the next day.
I have found that for some weird reason my family wants to be around me when I am on the trainer (too out of breath to nag???) but they hate it when they can't watch TV at the same time because I have a training DVD on.
(no it's not the only TV:) )
What I did was use my kids portable DVD player on a table in front of my bike and use earphones (in one ear) that have an extention on them.
It is also good because you can work really hard and not miss your favorate show.
I know this is no help to you hardcore computrainer types but maybe other people who struggle with managing family time and training time may find this helpfull.
