I guess riding on the road is boring after awhile, I just havent done enough road miles yet. (this is my first road bike, I had one 10 years ago but prolly put 50 miles on it)
5 year olds dont have the 25+ years of riding muscle memory I do either. Unlearning something can often be more difficult than learning something.
You don't "un-learn" anything from riding fixed. Everything you learn on the fixed bike, will transfer to all your styles of riding. Truth.
