Luckily, I don't require much sleep. 4-5 hrs is all I really need most of the time and I don't do coffee. I actually get up earlier on the weekends for my hobbies, whether it's riding, hunting, or fishing. Riding early is great. There's no traffic, it's quiet, peaceful, and I can get in 40-50 miles and get home by the time my kids are eating breakfast. I hate missing more time with them than necessary. Not to mention, if I wait until they are awake to try to go do anything, it's hell trying to get out the door with them hanging on my legs.

So early is kinda necessary for me, but I do enjoy being up before 90% of people and enjoying the quiet solitude.
