Exactly. I deal with headwind all the time on open roads, and learning/setting-up prolonged comfort in drops is my trick. Ritchey has great bars with many styles of drops. I was using EvoCurve for years happily, but just got some Streem II bars I like more.

Aero bars probably work better, but I prefer a slightly 'longer' TT setup. Aero bars would probably over-stretch me.
