Great commutes today, despite the heavy winds on the way in.

56F and mostly cloudy with mainly headwinds and some crosswinds from the W @ 18-21mph gusting to 27mph on the way to school. On a hill that I regularly get 35-38mph, today I was only able to hit 32mph max with the wind at my face. Still made fairly decent time though given the nasty winds.

48F and dusk to dark with mainly tailwinds and some crosswinds from the W @ 5-9mph on the commute home. I think this is one of the first evening commutes that I've made it home before 9pm. I actually left campus on time instead of hanging around for a while like I usually do. I think I'm gonna start doing that more often. Felt great the whole ride and was strong during the climbs.
