I love this thread. I'm new to cycling and really enjoy seeing what other riders are capable of. I live in south Texas and it is extremely flat here. The prevailing wind is out of the southeast, and it is usually blowing at 15-20 mph and gusting when I ride in the afternoon. I thought I might average over 16 mph yesterday, but that last two miles into the wind was a killer.
