I would recommend you to start running before you separate with the bike/trainer. Start integrating 1 or 2 running days per week so your body gets used to running. Otherwise you'll be sore half of the week and you won't be able to run as much as you want to because it will be painful for the muscles and you'll have to do nothing but rest for 3-4 days until your muscles recover.
If you don't want to lose the time on the saddle, do double workouts: one cycling and one jogging. I noticed that the sore muscles from running don't interfere with my moderate cycling.
To sum it up: start running as soon as possible.
