Yesterday was incredibly windy as [MENTION=152773]noglider[/MENTION] mentioned. I had an errand to run before and after work so I rode a bit less than 30 miles through whipping wind. I was dressed properly but the headwinds were strong and the crosswind gusts were downright startling in a few instances. This morning was much better and I passed 6,000 miles for the year which gives me a sense of satisfaction. I haven't driven to work since a few icy days last winter and yes we winter commuters are a resilient, tough group.
