I think perpetuum solids are probably the best thing that's happened to my riding in a while. Otherwise I don't eat early enough and get bonky.
Interesting about your average speed at night. This is one reason why I resolved to waste as little time as possible in the daylight. I really slow down at night, mostly because of navigation issues
Good to hear.
RE perpetuity... will give a try. There has to something to the product since so many seem to favor it. I need a little more speed and maybe it'll help along with continued training.
I recognize my issues at night. And need to avoid them!
