Just wondering with the clocks being set back an hour if it is dark, super dark, or just sorta dark at this time? I was thinking of squeezing in morning rides as it’s DARK when I get home now and I just don’t want to go out if its dark on my bike if I can avoid it at all.

My GF bought me a really nice CycleOps magnetic trainer for Christmas 2 years ago. I ride it in the winter but dear god is it horribly boring. 30 minutes on the trainer seriously seems longer then me riding 50 miles on the road.

I wish, but I have no where to store my clothes or shower. plus, I would either have to ride my bike over the Skyway or take S. Park though the projects. I think the Skyway would be the safer route
