Mines is usually full of cyclists during the weekends, so its probably best to do it during the week.

Agree, but if you go early enough in the morning (like before 8AM) you can usually get the road to yourself on weekends too.
Also be warned if you've never been to Mines -- the road narrows down to almost one lane for several miles and you have to be careful of oncoming traffic around the blind corners.
