Well, the Davidson proved itself today. Got home from work today and didn't feel like going out but I went anyway. Thought I was taking it easy but saw that I had a good pace going at around the 10 mile point. So I went after it a bit more. Was still holding better than a 20 mph avg when I started the 25th mile. Had been fighting a strong headwind that last couple of miles before that. Finally started struggling a bit. Finished the 27 mile route with a 19.7 mph avg which was a PR for this route and the best overall pace of any ride this year. I think today's ride shows this bike is as good as any of them as long as I give it a chance.
