I'm okay not gaining light in the morning. I'm just happy days are getting longer and soon there'll be daylight remaining in the evening after normal working hours.
|
On one hand it's great that we'll have more light, but on the other, now the cold days really begin.
|
And another thing, just look at all those 2s in today's date! You folks better be in a safe place at 2:22, or ya might slide right off the planet!!! 😲🚴
|
if the change also immediately brought warmer { 50F+ } weather, i'd jump for joy.
<--- No jumping from this guy. |
thank you for the reminder, I need to get more night rides in!
|
I don't mind the shorter days. Had a wonderful night ride last night, checking out the holiday lights and enjoying the quiet streets.
|
Although I generally prefer riding during the daylight hours…I do enjoy an occasional nighttime ride. Moon, stars, houses lit up, and the stillness.

Last night, Dear Wife and I noted the passing of the solstice. Bofus: "Oh crap - the days are getting longer." An byproduct of living in a land where the sun is actively trying to kill you 5 months out of the year. But the other 7 months (e.g. now) aren't bad. And even in the worst of the weather, you don't have to shovel or scrape it.

I'll be glad when it doesn't get dark at 5 PM any more.

It's 4:30, and only "starting" to get dark. 😁 But it's been really foggy here lately, all day long, so kinda hard to tell when it gets dark. 🤔😒
|
6:58 am Wifey asks where the heck are you going I said free breakfast in the lobby she said but it’s still dark out it’s 4am. She’s probably still snoring and I’m ready to go. This might be a long week off
|
At any rate I'm looking forward to warmer weather so I can get outside and ride again. Spinning on my bike in my office is OK but fairly boring.
