You go West from Reston?
I faced the wind bigtime this morning as well, on my commute from Courthouse to Tysons. I took a peek at the hourly forecast and it shows the wind dying down to single digit MPH for the ride home- dammit. All the work- none of the benefits the other way. My ride in is usually 45-50 minutes, deviations mainly driven by what lights I hit. So imagine how shocked I was to have done a 47-min ride this morning into the teeth of the wind.
