Kzoo Posted January 11, 2017 Share #5 Posted January 11, 2017 Driving home with that cross wind was nasty. The lights blinked once about 8:00. I think the winds have died down just a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2017 Share #6 Posted January 11, 2017 I love riding in high winds! Usually 80% of the local cyclists stay home. Of course on the trail, wouldn't ride in traffic with those conditions. I once rode up GMR with a few hard core forum members. One guy got blown over and knocked out cold. One good thing about being a heavier rider. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have almost been blown over a few times and I am pretty heavy at around 190. I like riding in a tail/head wind scenario, but I hate crosswinds. My ride is predominantly NE going out and SW coming back, so if the winds are really strong from the NW or SE, I'll stay home. Usually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually. 190 is a lightweight. This is me at 230 lbs. I hit 220 once for about a month to do a timed event (100 miles with 10,000 ft gain) but if I looked at food, I would gain weight. 230 is a light weight for me. 230 in 2005 *Arizona ride when I first met Ugly Bob. The guy next to me was a Love Forum member from AZ. He was about 160 pounds. But I'll never be a lightweight but that's OK cause the wind doesn't blow me around much! Did a 62 miler (2/3 of it solo) in 3:05. close to a 20 mph average. This is me last year at 240 pounds. I really want to drop back down to 230 real soon! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
