Saturdays I have to swim in the morning, and maybe I could go for a ride later during the day, but I'm usually pretty tired. Sundays are the other days I can ride with no issues, but all other days are pretty much full. I'm looking at 3 days per week, max, unless I get the trainer to ride before school.
Oh, by the way, I can't really ride out of my house very early in the morning because it's pretty dangerous where I live, so even if I wake up early (4-4:30 AM) I wouldn't go out.
However, I think the Garmin would also be very useful for tracking my progress with both my run and bike skills. Perhaps I could get the trainer now, and the Garmin for Christmas

When I started to not be able to have time to bike after work anymore, I began commuting to work on my bicycle, 19 miles, 38 round trip. Maybe you should look into bicycle commuting to school to get some extra cycling time in. Just a thought.
