As we're about to set the clocks forward for daylight savings it occurred to me, before cycling this would have been a reason to complain, "One hour of lost sleep! *grumble, grumble*" but now I'm like, "More hours of daylight to ride in!"
It got me thinking about all the other things cycling has turned around in my life:

Fall and Winter used to be my favorite seasons...now I mark the days till it they're over.

Farmer tans used to be taboo, now they're a source of pride.

Cars are now the enemy!

I now categorize my friends as "cyclists" and "non-cyclists" ...and all my "non-cyclist" friends think I've gone a little loopy in the head because of my bike obsession.

I wear spandex...in public!

The rain used to be a reason to chill and take it easy (I live in the Pacific Northwest) now I curse the rain because, "I just cleaned my bike!!!"

A date with my husband now involves riding to the next county and seeing who can climb up "Big Bertha" the fastest.

I know where to find the best deals on electrolyte tablets, cliff bars, gel packs, and butt cream.

The car needs work and yet money still goes to the bike.

and so much more.
