Donald, I have a Ram and a Saluki, which was the first version of the AHH. I can't say much about riding brevets, although my experience of century rides certainly lines up with Jim's. I run 38 mm pari moto tires on the Saluki and 29 mm grand bois cerf's on the Ram. The Saluki is definitely the more comfortable and I prefer it if I am riding a lot of dirt or bad chip & seal routes. The Ram is comfortable but not as much as the Saluki. The Ram is however lighter, quicker and more responsive than the Saluki and I would bet that also holds true for the Ram vs AHH comparison. The Ram feels like it climbs a bit easier and they are both rock solid on high speed descents. To put it in Jan Hein's terms, the Ram planes better than the Saluki.
In the end it seems to come down to a slight trade off between comfort and performance.
