Road Bike vs Fixed Gear no. 1 // Which is FASTER on a 21mi Route w/ 1700ft Elevation Gain

This is the beginning of a series of rides of me going against past Randy on his road bike. Past Randy was much leaner, scarier, and fitter so it's going to be a challenge!
On a serious note.. Here's a fun little comparison against the bike that made me love cycling, my Cannondale Caad8 vs my Crew District Track bike. I did this somewhat hilly route on my Cannondale last year with a good effort but I feel like it's time to challenge myself more on my fixie, so why not try and match/beat the road bike time? It's a pretty challenging route with some steep climbs and fast descents. I've always avoided categorized climbs on a fixed gear for some reason (uhh the reason being that it sounds hard af) until recently, but lately I've been feeling pretty confident on my fixed gear climbing abilities. Stick around for the results at the end!
Down below is my strava data for you to view AFTER the video

The results are as I thought they would be - a minute is a lot to a racer, but to a regular rider how your bike feels, and makes you feel is important - that's why I like to race myself on my bike, and not get into personal gripes with other riders, or compare myself to how fast people are going on youtube. I'm here for the natural drugs my brain makes :D No substitute for feeling great in a natural way. Cute cat btw ;) !
