Ok so this has nothing to do with bikes. I have no information to share. just wondering who works at night and has nothing to do but look at badweather. I work from 11pm to 7am. Sence I broke my ankle I know work in the office. so when I don't have anything to do I search Badweather. It keeps me sane. Just wondering who else works the night shifts.

I work nights by happenstance, having no circadian rhythm sucks.

I am usually have BW open on one of my screens.

I work 6pm to 6am and I'm looking though the threads and searching on Badweb for about 2hr's a night. I also spend a lot of time looking at MV agusta and Ducati forums.

BW is my home page, it is my insomnia default. Life of sales, you are ALWAYS working.
Besides you can rest when you're dead

I work nights. 3pm until they decide to let us knock off for the night. I spend quite a bit of time on the bad web.

I usually do 11 am - 11 pm shifts. Often I take the "long way" home and/or detour past the monuments in DC. That's one of the reasons I picked the screen name I did.

6pm to 6am......I get to miss the traffic on the way to work and home, as it is always headed the opposite direction at these times.

I am semi-retired now, but for well over 30 years when I was working as an aircraft mechanic I commuted year round by bike at night.

Only snow storms and heavy fog stopped me, although I still got caught a few times.

I did it mostly for fun, but the savings in gas and the preferred parking at the airport made it worthwhile.

I'm curious. I don't work nights but, what's with all the 12 hour shifts? Are you guys salaried, working a bunch of OT or doing a 3 12 thing?

I work as a dispatcher at the police department (until I go to the academy next year). We work 12 hour shifts with rotating days off. Also, I'm very much a night person, couldn't see myself working the day shift.
