Yes I am using the onboard flash and will have to rely on it for a while until I get the monies for a flash. I may also need to research the settings on the camera too as this may have caused them to be a bit more dark than they should have been as I took the pictures.
This go around don't rush into riding your bike. Do you have your camera gear with you when you are out riding your bike.

Are you (as I suspect) using the on-board pop-up flash? They are next to useless. You'll need to invest in a decent dedicated flash. I don't know flashes (I use an old Vivitar something-or-other), but if you do a lot of indoor stuff, it will be invaluable. Either that or get a really fast lens. The flash will be cheaper.
