Well that all depends. A week ago (im outa school now) I was all clogged up with finals and such, but I still made time for riding. Thing is though, I only work 2 days a week. Why cant you just get up early in the morning, or even take a short ride after school. A couple hours off your day will leave you plenty of time.

Actually, after Tuesday, I'll be a free man! But I usually have 8:00 class on normal days, but today was the last day of regular classes. Getting up at 4:00 AM to ride is just a BIT too hardcore for me. If it's not crappy outside I'll probably ride tomorrow to get to class... maybe hit the trails near campus after my exam at 8:00. I'll have plenty of time to ride this weekend... I'm sure I can find the time away from studying

Believe me, teachers are ready for school to be out, too. I ride in all kinds of weather, but school is keeping me inside most of the time. Soon I will get a much-needed vacation though, and I can ride all I want. I am counting the days.

The weather here hasn't been that COLD... just very damp and rainy. No fun to commute to class in, but FUN to ride in on the weekends! After Tuesday the cramming and stressing out will be DONE WITH! At least until next semester begins
