Lots of good suggestions here. I find that if I don't want to ride.... I just don't ride for a while and eventually I get some pent-up demand to ride. In the meantime, it's a good time to wrench on the bike a little and maybe do some upgrades (which will increase your enthusiasm to get back on the bike).
It's been a weird year for me. I've all but stopped commuting, but at first I was riding more. During the heat of the summer it was just no fun to ride during the day but I rode almost every night. Then things cooled off and so did my frequency. I finished tiling my kitchen (a project that probably should have been done in a few months but took FOUR YEARS). I figure I'll coast through the holidays and start riding more diligently in January.
