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.
You have an awesome collection of bikes, people like you inspire me to build up my own collection.
You have obviously also done an outstanding job in restoring that Davidson Impulse.
Now if I could be so indulgent, there are a few questions I would like to ask you.
1. How old are you? (I'm 51 and want to see either how far behind you I am, or how much time I have still to catch up on building my collection)
2. What do you consider to be the fastest bike in your fleet?
3. Do you have any of these fancy pants carbon framed thingees, and if so, how does that compare for speed.
Cheers.
