First time on rollers

I got E-Motion rollers, and never having used rollers, I got on these. I used the narrow doorway, which was helpful. A stepstool to the left I've found is really helpful, as the bike is elevated. I cycled for 45 minutes without mishap, got off fine, and felt very comfortable.

How 'bout: Brake, Pedal-Climb, Release brakes, start pedaling? :P

I found using the back brake when im getting on made it really easy when i first started out.

@pcfxer Funny you should mention Gitane. I have a 80's Gitane Professional that I am rebuilding from the ground up. It should be a sweet ride once the cycle is completed. " Steel is Real ". lol

@ReneeNme I have SRAM Force/Rival on an old steelie. I'm upgrading my Dad's Gitane TDF with mostly Campy right now (still has simplex rear derailleur but it still shifts amazing so it'll probably stay). And I'm getting a Ti bike with old Veloce (Full-cog up-shift). The Ti bike weighs 18.5lbs so it isn't snob worthy but it will be a fantastic bike. That is the issue with snob'ism as I've learned over the years. I stopped being one when I was beaten down by a pro.

@pcfxer Campy ? Dura Ace.
