is it just me or is there ALWAYS a head wind when you're coming back? I mean, on ALL my rides it seems like that's where I hit it! Last week on my short rides, I would be kicking butt (thinking I am all that and more) on the first half of my ride, so I would actually go just a little farther on the "out" part of my ride. Then when I get to my turnaround point, it is just WHAM I get slapped in the face by that wall of wind. One day it took me an additional 10 minutes to get back the wind was so strong. I went from 18-20 mph on the way out to 13 mph on the way back, and fighting that with every revolution of the pedals.

And then Sunday on the TDP, there was a ton of wind on the second half. Did you notice it too amelia05 or am I just a wind-weeny?
