I rode 70 miles on my 531 Peter Mooney fixed Sunday. Country roads. Bike felt great! Last night I rode the custom ti bike in-town and back. A much, much quicker, faster steering, tighter, stiffer bike; a pure 1980s race bike had derailleurs and freewheels never been invented. But despite being such a racehorse, it felt just as secure and nice over poor pavement, so much so that I tend to unconsciously seek out the bad stuff just because it's fun.
