While I disagree with Frankin's tomfoolery (seriously, Ben, did the lightning fry your brain? same amount of daylight, just at a different time on the clock), I do like the shorter days and colder temps. Obviously.

Right. I guess I should've explained that I'm not planning on riding in dim light. I get home by 3:15, and would still have a good hour to ride — the blink is all about being seen. Especially in those shadowy areas around curves, and with lower sun angles, etc. The rainy season is starting, though - so I'll probably just go to the gym most days.
