Serious question, has anyone else tried biking the exact same route at 6:45 AM versus 7:15 AM?
I switched my start time by 30 minutes last week and the traffic difference in downtown Seattle was insane, like a totally different city. Has anyone else found a tiny schedule shift that made a huge difference?

That "totally different city" feeling is real. I've noticed the same thing with school bus routes, that 30 minute window changes everything.

So is it just about less traffic, or does the whole vibe change? Like at 6:45 maybe you see people opening shops and it's quiet, but by 7:15 it's packed with everyone stressed and running late. That half hour can switch the whole mood of your trip.

My old commute was 45 minutes on the 7:15 bus. Switched to the 6:45 and it dropped to 20. That half hour is everything.
