Sorry that was a bit blunt!
If you are unlikely to ride it again in the future I would just go for it, but I can understand if you normally work weekends it makes the few you have off more valuable (I work a fair few myself).
It's an event I didn't think I would enjoy but riding the closed roads is ace, and going to the Olympic Park for a mass start was one of the really enjoyable bits.
Thanks for the info. The difference of a few hours means quite a lot to my partner! Especially on a weekend when I'm not working (she's looking after a 3 month old as well as a toddler) and she usually welcomes the break from doing things on her own.
