10 USD per month, or 99 USD per year.

I am not interested in the plans as I already have my own.
I have a power meter and a Turbo which shows power (well, an approximation of it)
All very good reasons to not bother with TR then, as you effectively have covered or have no interest in the key things they offer. Well, you would have if you had your PT wheel serviced, of course

I'm not yet sold on this - I can't really see a huge benefit in it at the moment. I can already see what people are doing via Endo or Strava, so this becomes yet another 'social feed'. Although it's interesting to see more detailed power metrics of course. TR do say that "Teams is a cornerstone to a bunch of other stuff we want to build so this is just the beginning", so I'll be interested to see what does come of it.

Based on last year and having a couple of bikes I was happy to ride during the winter, I'd have agreed with you on this. But with a cycling focus for 2014 combined with lots of competing time pressure, I expect to be spending a lot more time on the turbo for more focussed workouts, at least during the winter. I'd rather be outside, but if I hit my goals next year it'll be worth it. Although one thing that does make me stop and think - the power numbers I hit on the road are higher than on the turbo. Apparently this is common, but it does make me wonder if not hitting the same heights on the trainer is detrimental.
I think that's well and truly derailed Ben's wanted post
