Thanks all for the thoughts. Seems experience mirrors mine for fixed vs geared for similar length rides. Fixed maybe a bit harder, but mostly just different hard.
For me it seems I end similarly tired, geared riding is just faster and I push harder, fixed is a bit slower and I tire more from climbing rather than pushing on flats.
