Been a few times where I'll be moving at a good clip, and suddenly it feels like a headwind out of nowhere. Takes me a moment to realize that it was the tailwind I had dying down... It's really great when the tailwind is around the speed I'm going, it gets quiet(er) without the wind over my ears (and I usually wear a headband for that reason).

Sometimes I think about adding a windspeed indicator to my bike.
