Yesterday.. Wednesday.. was the strongest wind I've dealt with. In one spot I was already going slow against the wind and it picked up even further, literally stopped me in my tracks and pushed me backwards. Had to use the brakes to stop couldn't with my feet. Tonight - Thursday - was great! Calm but started raining. Felt so good took off my shirt and rode home! Left my reflective vest on at least but it flapped like a cape. That was a awesome ride.
