oude geit I usually start my rides from between 0300 and 0500. I sort of used to be religious about the 0400 start but after a few years in noted some standing about at the docket site or worse still that waking and lying in bed waiting for kick off time. So Now Im a bit flexible. My day sees me wake at 0430 regardless so this time window mostly fits a normal sort of day for me. BUT I do now place much more emphasis on my 1500 rest to feed stop. For me its food on board well before last light here in Australia. I take perhaps 40 minutes and feel very fine well into the next morning.
To be honest all ive done is fine tune my start time to fit some time after 0300. For me its gained an advantage 13 hours down the road.
