Also, do any of the other smaller folks have trouble getting blown all over the road (sideways) by gusty winds? I just can't hold a line in the wind. A couple of weeks ago I was reduced to walking my 80# tour bike DOWN hill b/c I couldn't stay on the road. My 80-ish-pound-heavier companion had no trouble.

It was one of those winds where you pedal for all you're worth, and go 5.5 miles an hour down hill. Ugh.
