Yea. Sorry about that. My only point was that it's easy to get in a rut or

There is one more thing to say in favor of a racing position; though this
term is really a false one, since it is used by riders who have no thought
whatsoever of racing; and that is that it is in a sense more comfortable for
putting out power if you like to push yourself. The butt-back, lower bar

I also have significant reservations about the heavy wheels

Not when you are climbing; the difference between a heavy wheel and a light

This is going to be truer for a person riding a fixie, or a person

Interesting analysis; so it's the surging that brings out the advantage of
a light wheel on a climb. I do notice that I tend to surge and, when on a
fixed gear, even while sitting, if you are pedaling at a slow rpm, the bike
tends to momentarily slow, then speed up as you pedal. I shall have to
Fastest season I ever had was the year I spent a few weeks early in the summer

I'm pretty sure you just described planing. Your IF works perfectly with
your power and riding style (and it looks mahvelous, dahlink). What a great

Okay, many great suggestions here and I appreciate the attention to
the topic. I think many of the observations about obsessing less with
how long it takes and enjoying the activity are appropriate. I
typically don't ride with others.
That's the rub, isn't it. Comfort vs. efficiency/aerodynamics.
I don't know what you'll feel about the looks, but the Velocity Nuvian

Wheels are definitely a good place to start. Even Mavic Aksium Wheelsets which
run around $250 can give you a lighter / slightly aero wheel.
Put some 25mm lightweight tires on them, and only use them on your fast rides.
You will likely feel the difference, especially if there is a lot of
