Blown Off My Bike
I live near the ocean and often ride down to the beaches. The wind really tends to pick up as you approach the water, especially in the afternoon, and I often find it coming at me sideways for many miles at a time. I have a really hard time holding a line when it gusts hard and have dammed near gotten knocked over a few times. l weigh about 116lbs. and my bike is aprox. 21-23 lbs. Short of riding with weights or indulging my fondness for cookies and pies, does anyone have any tips on how to ride steady in the wind ?
