Do you use actual rollers or a trainer? I'm interested in possibly starting to use rollers, but don't know that much about them. Good ride!

Rollers - love them, a lot more than a trainer anyways. I just use the basic tacx ones. It takes time to get comfortable on them but it engages your brain a bit more. I don't have any fan attachments so the problem comes trying to do some workouts that you can with a trainer.
