Cycling in the mornings

After just riding for a month, I have lost 2 inches off my waistline from 38" to 36". I have decided to cycle for an hour every weekday and try to loose another 2 inches. Despite taking breaks of 1 - 2 weeks off training, I have found that it would take me at least 1 week to get back to the cycling rhythm after taking that break. The longest break I should take without affecting my ride would be 3 -4 days.

Since I would like to cycle without loosing to much fluid and feeling muscle soreness, I have decided to ride in the morning instead of the evening. The cool morning temperature of 23-26 degrees C would be beneficial to ensure that I can train longer.
