Riding home last night was absolutely insane. I had a crosswind which felt like a headwind for much of the time. I've heard that crosswinds are as bad. I think they're worse. I eventually left the river with the hope that the wind direction would be different. It was, and it was mostly better, but it was much shiftier, and it shifted so quickly. There were two or three times when I was absolutely sure I was about to be knocked over on my side, but I saved myself at the last moment.
