Just got back from a ride in Missouri. I didn't believe my speedometer heading South into the wind. Felt like 120 mph.

In northern Ohio we have NO hills or mountains to block he wind. Windy ALL year long, except when it is 90 out of course.

Been a windy winter here as well, and the last week heavy winds. I was happily surprised to find the True-Track seems to help a little.

I think it's Global Winding.
