Apparently there are others who have come up with this seemingly dubious
invention!

I believe this should read, "this seemingly obvious invention!" :-)

no, it's all wrong!
You need to mount the fan behind the rider to provide additional
thrust making the bike move faster and that will generate more cooling.

Dubious is just fine!

Anybody else remember the "Brock-a-Brella" that Lou Brock (the baseball Hall
of Famer) was promoting?

Not ANSI-approved as a head covering while biking, though. At least not yet.

Same if you're cold to some extent. In fact, I was thinking about
that along the flat stretch on the way home tonight,' finding the
right cadence/gear combination that kept me warm without unduly
increasing wind chill by actually going faster. Or, pedalling slower
but working harder without going too fast.

No wonder driving is so boring.

Ever drive the Ike at lunch hour? Definitely not boring.

It is at 10 mph.

2:00 AM on the Ike -- now /that's/ exciting. Especially when the guy you just
cut off starts shooting at you. At 85 mph.
