Calibration Ride on Trainer?

Post by Chipbyrd »

Hi, I recently bought a Powerpod to use as a training tool. Unfortunately, I just severely twisted my ankle. According to my doctor, I should be able to ride in about 3 or 4 weeks. Often by that time of the year my road bike is on the trainer. (I have a flatbar bike I use for nicer days into November.)

Here is my question: Can I do a calibration ride on my trainer?

Thanks,
Chip

The calibration ride measures wind and slope conditions, so no, you can't do a cal ride on an indoor trainer...

However, you CAN ride indoors with your PP. Check the instructions so you can learn how to set your PP to indoor trainer mode.

Thanks for the reply. If I may, here’s an additional question: I think I know how to shift it to trainer mode. Can I just use Isaac Software as normal?
