My solution. I now get up at 4:30 am and am typically on my bike by 4:45. ...
Quit making excuses why you can't, make it a priority and you will find the time.
Good luck!
Though commendable, IMHO, this isnt something that is sustainable. Do you really think that you could adopt this major lifestyle change for the rest of your life? For me, what works is short neighborhood rides after work (30 mins or so) and longer rides on summer evenings or weekends. The short rides are enough to get me to a sweat, not too much time, and keep me interested.
You have to make it and keep it fun. Once it becomes a chore, 99.9999% of us quit in either a week, month, or year.
P.S. Nice job on the vintage bike.
