Then I was waiting at the light on shaw at king trackstanding and a gust hit me in the back so hard I almost rolled into the intersection! once I got on shaw it seemed like a tailwind most of the way so when I was close to home I started to ride no hands. But of course a sidewind hits me immediately and I almost lose it again! FUn!
