Dirty 30 weekday morning paceline?

I feel fairly confident this is gonna be a total flop.

Any guys in Scappoose/Saint Helens area ride hard and want to put together an early weekday morning paceline sesh? I'd like to get a minimum 4 guys on a well disciplined, fast line. Of the 19,000 people in South County, what are the odds 3 of them are dedicated road cyclists that don't already have a regular thing?

I'm thinking meet up in Saint Helens, and drive hard up to Trojan and back Monday, hit the low hills west of Saint Helens on Wednesday, and then maybe cruise to Sauvies and back on Friday. I'm an early riser with a busy workday, so 5:00-6:00 start works great for me. Maybe even a little earlier, while the summer light keeps things bright...

Or some variation on this. Open to 2 days... Tues/Thurs, also. Maybe flat/hard paceline Tues, and a weekly jam up Mountain View to Pisgah for a short climb day ? that's good for like 1400' of gain or so, especially if we take it to the gravel higher up Pisgah.

I know there's gotta be some serious road riders around here.

Or not. I am alone.
