But those _freakin_ winds! I'm wondering if I'll have a windburn
tomorrow.
Of course the inbound trip was nice: tailwinds - if partially cross
winds at
times - and a general downhill slope.

Good day.

Headwinds are great -- you get a longer ride for the same distance. :-)

Tailwinds are like cotton candy.

Last week, we got 53 mph winds. Those of us riding home bucked that
headwind all the way. When it would gust to that speed, you just stepped
off your "No longer going foreward" bike and waited for it to slow down a
bit.
