I could stand the fact that only a few people work up front, that it splits through the hills and that they start late. But now with red lights and the rest of it.....
Want to do your own thing? Maybe a 5:30am start in summer. You'll have BB, me and you! That will be equal to the number of people that actually get up front and do any work anyway.
I might even be in for that over summer (maybe... if I ever ride a bike again)
Timmsey too probably, Karlos on occasion. 530am would be heaps better for me from the perspectives of traffic-avoidance, knob cyclist avoidance, more sustained pace (proper roll-throughs, I'm getting excited already :-) and less rush to try and get to work. We could use the marginally longer 'fast group' route for some nice pace riding and no Oceanic / WC Hwy traffic lights.
Does summer start on Tues 23rd, 530am Floreat forum?
shit i am going to have to get up at 2am to get there!!
We can have a sponge competition. Whoever sucks the most wheels in week X, has to do the lead outs in week X+1.

BB, or we could meet 5-10mins closer to you at Leederville maybe? Take Grantham out from there?
Or, meet 5 minutes before/after 6ish and try to outrun/ catch-up to the group. Imagine the motivation to work as a group when you are being hunted or you see that target up ahead :-)
Ok, I propose 5:45am kick-off at the usual spot, Boltboi's suggestion. For starters we'll have the 3 of us plus Jake. We hopefully we can get a regular half dozen happening.
One 5.30am start is enough this week for me but in about 4 weeks I will have some time off so I might join you for a while then...
Great. Should be able to add Chris to this to give us a regular group of 4 plus occasional Karl, Fletch, Georgie, SteveJ etc.
