Exercise Bikes for PS2
I'm thinking about getting an exercise bike for my ps2 in order to stay healthy. What are your thoughts? Does anyone have one? Are they any good?

You get exercise bikes that plug into your PS2/XBOX/PC and you can pedal instead of hitting the accelerator. It'd be great for Moto Gp3.

Alternatively, you could get a bike and go out in the fresh air!
Although I realise you are located in Scotland, so the weather may be constantly scuppering that plan!

I can't help thinking it would only really work well with a cycling game.
I couldn't imagine peddaling to make a GP bike accelerate. It'd be unnerving to say the least..... |

I'd say throttle control with that method would be a tad difficult.
Alesi, I fear you'd be wasting your money on this. How much is it? Bet it costs a flippin' fortune! |

Alesi 95, you silly, silly boy. Tut-tut......
It's a bit much for some pedals. Notice you have to provide the seat and you still have to use the controller at the same time. So what exactly are the pedals controlling then?

I was considering a Reebok cyberrider - these connect to the ganes and you gofaster by peddling harder etc - however my physio says I need a cross-trainer so I'm waiting for the cyber-rider version of that.
