    your better of getting a road\mountain bike and goin out on the road, even though your are limited at this time due to winter hours, but it will be more beneficial in my opinion anyway, i cannot stand gym bikes, they are so boring

    but you may need to increase you funds if you are, as you would need a decent bike for outdoors, one that doesn't cost you more while you ride it, if you understand what i mean.

    I have a static bike, and honestly, I dont recommend it. Not because theres much wrong with it (tho no cadence which Im told is a good thing for real hard training) and I use it lots, but it just lacks in so many areas. And its booooooring. I think youd be better to buy a regular bike and a turbo trainer for indoors. Its more money but I reckon youd get more use long term. At some stage thats the set up Im gonna change to, when money allows.
