When we had those thunderstorms a few weeks ago I had a really great tail wind for just less than a mile. I could pass cars. I will tell my grandchildren about it, I never thought it would happen to me. Today wasnt that good but still the fastest ride home by about 6 minutes. I dont know why except I rode my backup road bike instead of my Crosscheck and I have really been riding a lot. THe little pleasures.

almost overshot an intersection.
For those of you who have never had a tailwind, it was glorious. Around here we have a very dependable afternoon wind out the northwest, having a tail wind was like seeing the aurora Borealis from Miami.
