Our club in northeastern CT has 9 AM start times until June 1st and then Saturday start time is 8 AM. The only problem I have is the B rides (and especially the C rides) have a stop mid-way (around 20-25 mi.) that takes too long for me. When I do solo rides of 40 mi. I don't incorporate a stop and I prefer it that way. Stopping for drinks and muffins in a group of a dozen or so riders assures a 1/2 hr. stop and I just hate that.
