Wind weenie

[Catrin]

I hear you Winding Road! I really want to ride in Boone County tomorrow, I am so TIRED of Eagle Creek Park - it is a beautiful treadmill that I can't tolerate for more than 17 miles and I really want to get in at least 25 miles tomorrow. Of course, Boone County is the flattest of the flat, and with nothing growing yet there isn't even corn yet to break the wind...sure there is the occasional very steep "bump" in the road that comes out of nowhere, but that is different

What I am really hoping will happen is the rain won't come tonight as forecast and I can get my ride in after rush hour...but we will see. I will likely still do it tomorrow, and this is once case where I think my 35-pound bike helps me - in the cross-wind!

Indy, we were posting at the same time I seem to find myself more comfortable with cross-winds than head-winds - I think the weight of my bike helps me in the first but not the latter. It will be interesting to see how the Gunnar will feel in these conditions...
