TrainerRoad Setup Guide

1. Check your equipment: http://www.trainerroad.com/equipment-checker 

You can use TrainerRoad with a power meter, a CompuTrainer or Wahoo KICKR, or just about any regular bike trainer.

Depending on the equipment you are using, you may need the following:
  • ANT+ USB Stick (Garmin or Suunto Movestick Mini)
  • Wireless Cadence/Speed Sensor (Garmin Garmin Speed/Cadence Sensor, Wahoo Fitness Speed and Cadence Sensor, etc)
  • Complete hardware requirement info HERE

2. Sign up for the service: http://www.trainerroad.com/sign-up 

You can sign up for a year for $100, or simply go month-to-month for $10.
You'll notice a link just above the "Sign Up" button that says "Have a promo code?" Contact your primary coach to get a coupon code for $10 off.

3. Install the software. You'll be prompted to do this after you sign up.

4. Pair your devices: Essentially what this means is you want to get the TrainerRoad program to talk to your trainer. Watch a video HERE.

5. Join the teamLPC TrainerRoad page to be able to access customized workouts. Ask your coach to send you an invitation to join.

6. Upload your TrainerRoad workouts to TrainingPeaks - Instructions HERE

7. Questions? Simply contact your primary coach for help!

3 Golden Rules of TrainerRoad

1. Always pump your rear tire up to the same pressure before every ride.

2. Always put the same amount of resistance onto your rear tire from the trainer. Try to come up with a way to remember how much resistance you need to put on. For example: "After tightening the trainer so that it just touches the rear tire, I always turn the knob 5 full turns."

3. Keep your rear tire clean! No dirt, no oil, nothing. This will be easier to do if you use a Trainer Tire for indoor riding (but be sure to put on your regular outdoor tire before going back outside).
