Wacky- It is howling in NW Austin Area today. DH went and rode, when he returned I asked how it was and his reply "brutal". He is a strong rider and said in the headwind he was having trouble keeping it in double digits on a relatively flat road he can usually average 18-20 mph on. Don't fret it is a bit hairy out there!
I may be a wimp but I generally chose to ride when I will enjoy it, feeling like I am blowing over is something I do not enjoy. If I am training for a ride I will suck it up but since right now I am not training for any rides, I chose to enjoy my Sunday with my fur kids, watch skiing on TV and do laundry. Have some more tea and embrace your wind weenydom.
