Im from Wyoming. I spent a long time in Southern Colorado and now I’m in Central Oregon. I know a little bit about riding in the wind.

You can’t plan for a tailwind home. Best case scenario, it dies. Most likely it’ll shift and kick your butt both ways.

Crosswind can induce death wobble.

When you do get that magical gale force tailwind, enjoy it. Seeing an average over 30mph on a longish ride is a beautiful thing.

Screaming at the wind, no matter how loud, doesn’t help. I’m still trying though.

Watch the crosswinds. A tumbleweed will straight up kill you.
