I kind of hate to say it, but I agree. I miss working nights when on my ride in I was the only cyclist on the road, and on the way home my commute was the opposite direction of the other bike commuters. From where I live to where I work and go to school in Seattle I'm channeled by the terrain into a route half the cyclists on the north end of the city are taking, and I'm shooting to arrive at 0800.
