Of course I look at life through a certain lens and right now the reality is that I don't have time to do all the things that I'd like to be doing. And it kind of kills me because I have to take a pass on a lot of opportunities.

So, looking at your rules through my lens I would either have fewer bikes or get rid of the rule that says I need to ride them all regularly. I don't need that kind of self-imposed pressure. They're your rules, you're allowed to change them.

I definitely have and would use my commute to train for an upcoming event because it's an efficient use of time. If you prefer to cruise on your commute instead, you could alternate days. If that doesn't do it, I'd say then you've got to decide what's more important to you at this time. However, I do think you want to continue to see commuting as something you enjoy, otherwise you may not keep doing it. If training is killing the joy, perhaps it's not worth it.
