I have just gotten myself a turbo trainer – purchased the Elite Volare Elastogel rom Halfords and it seems great. I am now thinking of linking it up to Trainer Road which obviously involves an internet connection.
I don’t have an iPhone and the app for android isn’t yet available so I’m going to have to connect via my PC.
For my outdoor biking I use a Garmin Edge 800 although as I understand it, I don’t really need this top unit for the Trainer Road system.
I already have a Garmin Heart rate Monitor and I’m looking to buy the Garmin Speed / cadence sensor (GSC 10). So that’s the hardware – I just need to sort out connectivity.
I was thinking of buying an ANT+ USB stick to insert in the PC but I’m not that clear on this technology. My direct question I suppose is how do I know which ANT+ USB stick will be compatible? Are my other thoughts broadly correct for setting up on Trainer Road or is there something else that I should be considering?
Many thanks WW
