    Try rollers, maybe. From your other posts I'm guessing you'd enjoy rollers.

    Watch out for that lightning though. We've been caught in some doozies riding the motos in/near the Ocala NF. Definitely find shelter if you do get caught.

    I just change up my routine. I go from riding after work to spinning, running and yoga. I ride when I can on the weekends. Come January and February, I'll be lucky to even do that. I miss riding, but the change in routine also does me good.

    I see winter as a time to focus on other athletic goals. As much as I love cycling, it makes me neglect other fitness areas--like upper body strength and weightbearing exercise--that are important.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    I will look into rollers- I dont know what the difference is!

    Yeah, the weather can be rather unpredictable The route I plan to take home in the afternoon should have a few places to duck into if I need to.

    Oh I also need to get some leg warmers and a headband or something for the chilly mornings.
