It’s the grab it when you can time of the cycling season. With darkness outstripping daylight hours, the window of opportunity for cycling is shrinking. If you wait too late in the day to go out, you’ll be coming home in the dark.

At the same time, temperatures are slowly dropping like autumn leaves. In summer, I used to get up early and be on the road or trail by 9 a.m. to beat the heat. Now, I snuggle under warm covers, waiting for the temperature to rise to at least 50. Sometimes, I have to wait until noon.
