Can I borrow a Turbo Trainer?

At work we are hoping to raise Money for Clic Sargent, a Charity that support families whose child has Cancer. A colleague and I want to do a sponsored bike ride. However we don't have enough money to cover the costs of doing an epic ride so I thought we could set ourselves up in the window of the shop and do our epic ride...on a turbo trainer. However a slight problem being that we don't have one.

I have asked a few shops if they would be willing to lend us one for the duration of the challenge (5 days) but all have declined. I am reluctant to buy one as it will never be used again and the money we use to buy it would have to be taken out of the sponsership donations.

So I am asking if any of you guys have one that I could borrow for 5 days?

I have a tacx flow. If you can pick it up from New Malden you are more than welcome to it.

5 days on a turbo? You've not used one before have you?
I'd rather pluck out my own eyeballs and sauté my ball sack.

I have a Tacx Satori which you can borrow. Pick up from Shepherds Bush

Why not just use an exercise bike instead? Either way its gonna be boring as fuck staying in one place for 5 days.

i have one you can borrow if picking up from Streatham would be easier for you, its never really been used as i discovered how dull it was!

Thanks everyone. I just have to confirm all the plans with my boss and I shall get back to you all. We are waiting to here about whether Reebok fitness will lend us an exercise bike, though I have never felt all that comfortable one.

Im aware of the boredom but I guess that will be part of the challenge.

it might be dull but its for an amazing cause - nice one, i hope you raise loads of cash

I'd ask around for a couple of big pedestal fans as well, and don't forget a few towels...

Good luck :)

... and some of this:

spinning bikes aren't as bad as excercise bikes (and they're fixed), you'd have to rig up a computer for the distance etc.

oh and you'll need decent drainage for the sweat, and some way of combating the steamy windows
