Thanksgiving day here in the USA the weather was cool with overcast skies but man was the wind fierce and directly head on to my southern route. These old bones were really creaking heading largely uphill AND into the wind.

At one point I looked at the speedo and it said I was doing 1.8 MPH! I was wobbling around fighting for every revolution, I nearly hung it up and turned back. Wind was gusting 25-30 MPH. I hunkered down as low as I could go an pressed on. 1:50 for a 15 mile trip - I had planned on 1 hour or 1:20 at most. I did manage to hit 20mph+ on a few short stretches as the wind died down briefly and I was on a downhill.

I know being a noob my experience was probably a walk in the park for most. So what's the worst wind you have ever faced?
