Hey guys,
My brother's partner (old high school friend of mine) wants to buy a trainer. Since it would be his first one I guess it doesn't really matter what kind, as long as it's a good one. I told him I would post it in case someone has one they want to sell. The way I figure it, it'd be better to put him in contact with you guys than to send him off on his own. PM me and I'll send him your way... Thanks guys!

Tell him to get rollers instead (build fitness and bike-handling skills at the same time). If he doesn't want to do that, and if GP_Pilot is unable to sell his trainer, I also have a fluid trainer from Performance that your brother's partner might be interested in.

Very Cool. Thanks guys!
It'll be a while before he'll want to do rollers, he's trying to lose weight first. A lot of weight.

Thanks Fellas!
He bought B5Driver's. He had the winning trainer!
I appreciate everyone's helping him out. Him and my brother are gonna get on a weight reduction program with their bikes! Hoorrah!
I'll see if my brother gets interested in getting a trainer and I'll hook him up with you guys. Thanks again!

B5Driver must have gone stealth and sent a pm -- well played; well played.

I guess that came out wrong. Didn't mean anything by it. :drunk:

Hopefully Ray can get more use out of it than I did.

I should have used smilies (though I despise them) to communicate that I was making fun of myself. No offense taken.
