And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why I wear a helmet on rollers.

I was riding rollers for awhile one time and got bucked out of my rollers across the room and into the fireplace. Luckily no fire at the time.

I still Ride mine, Even though the bearings are wearing out, but what really make that video so funny , is that anyone who has ridden rollers has done that!!

I have a Buddy of mine who can ride no hands on rollers !

y are rollers harder than riding on the street? it doesnt make sense the wheel are still acting like gyroscopes. so how come its harder to balance

 

[Skookum]

ahaha that's funny. i'm glad Happy loaned me his trainer when i was rehabbin. My road bike has never had me on the saddle for so long. And there's no way i could have used one of those with a gimped out leg....

Is it less funny when a MTB guy falls off?
Because it seemed funny to me when I landed on my ass when I was learning how to ride them.

Rollers are a bitch to learn, but they are great for training once you get the hang of it.

Anyone heard of the Urban Cowboy drinking game?

Beer+bike with two flat tires+rollers+group of people= entertainment

Come on people. Riding rollers is not hard. I've put probably 1000 miles on my rollers in the past year and never fallen off of them. Hopefully that poor dude was using them for the first time, actually I would think that would be the only time riding rollers would be worth taking video.

And spoke80, you won't fly across the room from falling off your rollers unless your wheels weigh more than you and your bike combined.

I have no problems riding my mtb on rollers, fat slick tires and slack geometry make things nice and stable. My roadbike on the other hand is twitchy as all get out.

You probably need to adjust the front roller for the wheelbase of your road bike.

That is hilarious!!!!

I like rollers, gets you ready for the mountain bike season by:
1) getting you in shape
2) perfecting your spin
3) practice crashing

It took me a few times to get used to them.

The cylinders themselves are what makes riding them hard, it feels like you are riding on ice.
I've never got flung across a room, but have left a few patches on the carpet!

A friend likes to ride his in a doorway.

I got a kick out of that I watched it 5 times in a row
