I've never experienced cross wind issues. Though my route works out such that I don't have many.
Going home I cut over on Bowers to Central Roll up Central (head wind) and go from Shoreline over to footfill at edith (not much wind/head wind on almond). Then up foot hill and Alameda is a headwind.
I guess I'm lucky.
