First I rode the outer loop hard with a sweet 28 lbs FS bike and 2.3" tires.
23 min.
Next I rode it with a nice light hartail with the 2.3" tires.
23 min.
Then I rode it with a very light SS and the very light wheelset with Kenda lights.
22 min.
Today I rode it with the nice light hardtail with the very light wheelset, two loops.
21 min each! :banana:

It's not the bikes, it's that the more you ride the faster you get.....:)

Now do it on a BMX bike and see what time you get......:scream:

The funny thing is the 21 min time was on a 97 Schwinn Homegrown. So much for high-tech. :cool:

Do you exclude the XX? If so, why? For me a complete loop is Dream I, X, XX, X, Dream II to lot.

I definitely ride faster on my HT SS than I ever did on a geared FS bike.

Yeah, only the outer loop cause I don't have to slow down as much. It's more of a Roadie workout not doing the XX or XXX.

I would say a '97 Schwinn Homegrown is still pretty high tech. Besides minor details, bikes have not progressed enough yet to make that one obsolete.
