| Re: 10 miles on a road bike compared to same on a stationary bike?
Two major factors:
1. The resistance of your stationary bike
2. Measure the length of time, not the mileage.
You might want to consider a video or DVD such as put out by
spinervals.com or carmichael training systems to increase interest in
and reduce boredom on the stationary bike. I use an indoor trainer at
times, and find the videos really help.
Also, 10 miles is not a lot for either an indoor or outdoor situation.
I try to do an hour on the stationary bike at the gym, and equate that
in my mind to about 16 miles, expecially if the resistance is
significant, and I am not just free wheeling.
Good luck.
