I certainly agree. I've been off the bike for four days now due to rain and have only done one long ride in the past four weeks; I'm pretty listless today.
I find a really difficult time for me is when I go to educational conferences in my profession. They always involve sitting for extended periods all day long, as well as protracted sitting during traveling to and from the conference. I always bring or rent a bike to ride in the morning, but there is neevr enough time to compensate for the prolonged inactivity. I usually go to about two a year, but by a fluke, I'm planning on three in October (groan).
