Dealing with wind

Anything over 15 mph makes me reconsider riding. T

I would never ride in that case! The wind is always blowing that much around here.

That's the truth. Wind is always 10-20. It's just more difficult when it's 20-30. My limit is anything over 30.

Agreed. A calm day around here is ~10 mph. Sustained winds over 30, and I'm on the couch

there are a couple of good hints about riding in the wind on the bicycling.com site today. These days it has to be blowing ~15 mph before I even notice it. Of course this being the Texas plains, that's pretty much a given.

Yes, it's a pretty hard to avoid here too in the spring - except that mornings are usually much better. So it motivates me to ride early. if I didn't have that option I'd just have to get over my wind issues. I probably should anyway, and the example you all are setting is helping.
