Time to teach the old dog a new trick, eh?
I'd start without the headwind doohickey. Doorway, hall, wall. They all work.
Don't know how necessary it is to not clip in until you're comfortable. Just make sure that you keep one hand against a wall/doorway/etc when you start. Keep the cadence high.
Like bd wrote, look ahead (a TV about 6-10 feet away works for me

).
