Nice hour-long ride short, but better than nothing! I DID hit my country roads yesterday, but could only tolerate the winds for 27 minutes of so - AVERAGE heart rate was 145 and even got an upset stomach! Rested a few minutes and took my bike back to the "beautiful treadmill" that has great wind breaks (a local nature-preserve park) and got in another 45 minutes or so.

WestTexas - I can't advise - but I am sure that you will make the best decision.
