Spring Forward!

[Mr. Bloom]

March 9 is the day we get daylight savings time

In my part of the world:

Today's sunset is 5:48PM

In 60 days:

Sunset will be 7:55

The days are getting longer! Hang in there Northern Hemisphere'ers

Now, let me go climb on my trainer!

[Velobambina]

My favorite word this time of year: SPRING.

[crazycanuck]

But I don't want the northern hemisphere to have summer soon.. I want more summer...

It'll be icky & wet outside by the time i get back into the groove

[Mr. SR500]

I can't wait, the first time trail is 2/16 (in one month!), I have 32 miles to date! I hope Spring comes fast.

I'm desparate for longer days too. I was just guessing where the road was on Monday night when I did my after-work ride. No moonlight to show where the dark road ended and the dirt shoulder started. Lucky I've done the route enough time to know approximately where the road goes. I'm looking forward to being able to do the ride in full daylight and see wildlife in the fields!

[NoNo]

I like the way you think Mr. Silver!

I'm soooooooo with you.............................. I want longer summer............

a blessing is that the day light savings has been pushed out here until 5th April YA YA !!!!!!!

[RoadRaven]

The days are getting longer!

That means my days are getting shorter...

I want more summer...

Me too... when I get back to work I am going to have less and less time to ride as the days get shorter And I really really wanted you on the bike in some of the lovely weather that has been happenning

I can't wait, the first time trail is 2/16 (in one month!), I have 32 miles to date! I hope Spring comes fast.

Somehow I hadn't registered you are a TT enthusiast... do you post course descriptions and/or race reports somewhere? I'd be interested to have a nosey at them (I assume you mean TTs...)

I'm already giddy with the thought of being able to ride after work again. One of the bigger perks of my job is that I'm done at 4:30, which gives me enough time from mid-March to mid-October to ride in the evening after work. Oh, the joy.

That said, I'm actually enjoying my winter routine. I like going to the Y and meeting new people. It's very social and, who knows, maybe I'll meet a nice, athletic man! Spinning is actually fun, in a masochistic way. My Tuesday spin instructor actually told me last night that he likes to just watch me in class because I'm so intense and lost in my own world. Either that, or was flirting with me.

[HillSlugger]

Unfortunately, since I do my runs at 6am this means that the little morning light I'll have in February will be lost again until April! I suppose it means that I might be able to start bike commuting to work.

Or, go to an indoor shooting range where you can have your pick of men.

Me too Smilingcat. It's my weekend to work, which means rise and shine @ 3:30 am (which will be 2:30 AM). Extra bonus is I'll still have to work 5 more days afterwards. But it also means I can up my mileage without worrying about it getting dark on me .

Sounds like a come on to me Kate.

He's not allows to simply say "I like watching you in class...". So, the question is: Are you really lost in your own world????

He doesn't do much for me and is probably a few too many years younger than me, so indeed I am. But it might be fun to flirt. I'm seriously out of practice!

[Susan126]

I am SOOOOOO ready for spring to arrive! Along with longer days, nicer weather, sunshine and all that good stuff!

But until then my spin class is helping me get my leg strength back. I would rather be on my real bike outside but until then it's spin class with my wacky hard core spin instructor!
