Daylight savings ends tonight ... but only in most of North America. Not good.

Russia has got it right ... stay on DST all the time. Pity North America doesn't do that too.

The whole notion of changing the time itself instead of just changing at which hour we go to bed & wake up is just so.... well, American.

Since I ride at 6:30 a.m., I no longer get to use my lights.
And just last Friday, two of my riding partners again told me how annoyingly bright my rear light (DiNotte) was.

Thank God we're finally going back to normal time. I'd do away with Daylight Savings Time altogether, or limit it to beginning the week before Memorial Day and ending the week after Labor Day.
