4:30 from Ski Ward. Could delay a bit, but not later than 5 as want to be back in full daylight and be able to catch/heckle some of the CX riders (and of course grab beer and burger before the meeting).

Hard/A type pace around Wachusett Res. Maybe hard pace the whole way
Fintan - do you have preference on time?
Rees & Dave - does it make any difference to you if we push it up 15-20min?
There is one other "hopeful" (Mark Trahan) but we would need to roll by 4:45 if he's able to make it.
4:45 is better for me, but it might not make much difference honestly. Do what's best for the group. If I can't make the start time, I may ride the loop backwards and hitch up with you guys along the way.
Okay, we are going with the 4:30 planned depart.
For anyone jumping on this late, at mile 6 if you turn right to hit the Res counter clockwise you'll run into us.
