The machine has a continuous horse power of 3.0 with a peak of 4.5.

Automatic incline helps you to make your workout hard and firm. It has a hand pulse monitor as well as infrared for heart rate measurement and it folds for easy storage. Whilst the high DC motor allows for a stearn test making this treadmill true value for money

This is a great treadmill that allows you to run, walk up anything makes you really feel as if your running up a mountain :D

What should I be doing for bike fitness in winter?

Its winter down here in NZ and I am looking for some good wind trainer programmes for my bike. Any suggestions?
Thanks DJ, kinda cold? I work during the week and its been about -4 before I get to work and dark and about 2 when I finish so that rules out Mon-Fri for me, I am still doing 2 w/e rides in the middle of the day when its a balmy 8 or so. Really I am looking for a wind trainner programme as I am bored of my own.

OK so it is kind of cold in winter in NZ , but here in the very south of Oz where I am it is also cold and all the cyclists are still out training on the road on better days. On other days they are using exercise bikes at home or they go to the gym and do stuff there.
