Wind?:

So, you're JRA, and suddenly, a relentless head wind slams you, stealing
your speed and sapping your energy.

You take a 45 deg. bend to the left, and the wind is still pointedly a
relentless head wind.

You take a chicane, still a headwind all the way around.

You take a long sweeping right that all but doubles back on itself, and,
still a bloody headwind.

Ad infinitum et nausium (whathehellever blah blah blah...).

So, wise folks, laymen and meteorologists, HOW TF _IS_ that
possible?!?!?!?!?

Huh?!?!?!?

Having a good day Shaun?

Local climatology at ground level can be greatly influenced by many
factors. Channeling due to local topography or man-made structures is
probably your greatest foe. If you're riding in a hilly area, anabatic /
katabatic influences may also exist.

Yes thanks. And you?

Yes, no news there dude!

probably your greatest foe.

Or here, either...

I'm riding, at this point, right across the top of a big, high-ish open
hill, with only low walls nearby. I can literally turn a right angle and not
have the previous headwind, wind hit me sideways on! Madness it is...I tells
ya, madness...


Shaun aRe - it's got it in for me this wind, it has!

Shaun,
It was a totally windless day, and you were riding too fast.
