Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

I'm not in the Midwest now but just thought ya'll would like to know they're predicting 40-50 mph wind gusts during my commute home tonight!
Corsair "just wondering how gutsy I really am" MacLife should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

So, Corsair, how did you fare in the wind?
Here the wind went away, leaving snow
in its place. OK, it wasn't much snow, and it didn't stick at all, But Still. 
Hope you got home in one piece - or are you in Oz now?Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

actually I think all you awesome ladies here on the board must've been thinking good thoughts!! I only had to deal with 21 mph crosswinds (which is pretty normal here), the big winds hit about an hour After I got home! whewwwww!

Windy, cold ( 44F, but wind chill at 34F), drizzle, snow, and sleet. What an interesting ride!
I managed 40 miles and just had to laugh some of the time. What else to do? It didn't precip the entire ride, or I'd have found a short cut home. Brief epsisodes of the wet stuff. I am glad I went, but even gladder to be home! Do you think it will ever be warm again???? Looking ahead, the forecast looks decent for the weekend, but I'll believe it when it gets here.
