But PB, isn't that the time that the road race is being run on the same course? I didn't think you could get away with that. Also, get out there too early and none of the rest stops are really to resupply you yet. Plus, you miss the opportunity to inch along -2mph for the first several miles of the tour while sandwiched among the other 10,000 riders :-)
One thing I did learn the hard way after riding in my first HHH was to use a Camelback. There are plenty of rest stops along the way so that you really don't need the extra water capacity of the Camelback, but the first 3 rest stops are so packed with riders lined up for food, water, and port-a-potties that you can waste 30 minutes or more just waiting. The Camelback lets you go by without getting caught in all that mayhem.
