Wind in Perth yesterday
I tried to sailboarding yesterday (one of my other hobbies) but it
was blowing too much. On the way home, I saw many riders pushing against a 20 - 25 knot headwind along the freeway. One of the few times I was glad I was driving and not riding. I'd rather ride up hills than into a headwind. Duncan. |

That southerly in the morning is killer. It has caused me to miss the papas bunch at canning bridge couple of times over the last few weeks!, doh.. remember though, its only the best training tool you can have -- byron2 6'5", curly hair, bit like krusty the clown i spose |

A training ride, where the headwind was so bad that if I wasn't pedalling hard down the very steep hills, even on my drops I would slow down. I agree entirely. T |
