Taunting Me...

On a rainy cold night, as the Christmas tree glows from the white lights on its branches and Sunday night football is on TV, there is this object across the room that stares me down.  It taunts me, almost laughing at me.  It whispers you can't do this ... I will beat you!!  Oh bike trainer you are not my friend!  And all I have to say to you is ... "Watch Me"!!
