Wasn't too bad when i left for work, then about half way there the wind really started suddenly gusting and twice nearly chucked me into the path of oncoming artic' lorries.
The second time it happened the wind rapidly changed direction a few times and it must've looked like i was riding in and out of cones to compensate.
i bet defo not a god day to be on a bike

I've ridden in all weathers over the years but that was a particularly gusty day.

I braved it like Darrsi - watched a cyclist get blown into the kerb in London and fall off quite hard. Thought about stopping to see if he was ok but couldn't be asked - it is the thought that counts though :lol I told myself as I rode on pissing myself.
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
