Yea, I'm with you. Winds suck!
Rollers can be really fun. There are times you can get enough momentum running from one to the other that you can just stand up and power of the next one (if there isn't a sucky stop sign at the bottom like in your second pix lol).
Not that I qualify, but I'm sure really strong riders can ride through rollers very quickly.
PS: Nice pix with that telephoto perspective.
