You guys are thinking about spending $2000+ and having a friend pace you, an Uber home would be like $50. So it would take you 40 motorpacing rides to break even.

Down east NC one day it was windy enough I avg'd 25-30 the entire "out" leg. The "in" leg on the way back......lol. I'm not as strong as you guys are. Let's just say that.

And this wind out here, it's super consistently from the west to the east about 75% of the time and at least 8-10mph. Often 10-15mph wind one day a week.
Not to be all Crocodile Dundee but that's not wind.
