Fall Back
Spring Foward; Fall Back
We went off of daylight saving time yesterday and suddenly I’m being treated to a sunset commute. Way cool.

2 Responses to “Fall Back”
I wish… loosing DST puts my commute squarely an hour AFTER sunset… :/ not so bad all in all, but I LOVE the sun.
Meanwhile, I went from catching the triumphant sunrise right as I crested the last hill before arriving at work in the morning to riding 5.5 miles with the Eye of Sauron staring me down…
On the plus side, I’m not burning batteries on the morning commute anymore.
