This is a really good thread- thanks ladies! i'm not training for anything, but I really struggle with finding enough time to work 2 jobs, take care of the fur kids, keep up with the house and all of our DIY projects (its an old house!), and still find time to put in meaningful mileage. Commuting to work a couple days a week helps mileage-wise, but I wish for more.

Lately, I've been taking a few hours of comp/vacation time each week, despite the overflowing inbox, just to get some bike time in.
