No I do not have a bike, just looking for a way to do some cardio in addition to crossfit.

i was trying to save you some $. if you had a bike you can spend 125-150on a turbo trainer . just use your current bike on this. the back wheel goes while the bike stays stationary..
if you can, get 400.00 and go price out a mt bike.go to a bike shop. a wall mart bike is cheaper but if you need a part, even bike shops dont have what they need to fix a wall mart or target biike..
i race road bikes, but if your after just riding it hard for x training a few days a week, get a mt bike.
good luck

my problem is I want something that I can use when the weather SUCKS.... not to mention i'm in the city and there isn't anywhere to ride within 45 minutes.. I guess it's not a huge deal, if I can't get a good stationay bike for less than 400 bucks I will just keep going to the globo gym in the morning. Ughhhh, I hate the thought of all the "new years resolutions" that will be CROWDING the gym in a week or two....
