Agree. The winter was very long and dark last year in Seattle. I purchased a stationary trainer that attached to my road bike in the fall. Kept me in shape in the winter, and frankly helped my attitude as well. Nice to read, watch a movie, cycle stark naked, etc...

Personally, I have tried a wide array of exercises but quit when they took up too much time.
Two years ago I found what suited ME best. I got a stationary bike and I spend 20-40 minutes every day on it, while reading Porsche magazines, medical literature or just think about my day. Works perfectly for me. I "waste" very little time, yet receive a daily amount of exercise. Also, my knees and back are week and this is the only exercise I can do without any pain.
Good luck!
