Riding in the wind
There can be issues riding g in strong wind.
Ok so you all heard going riding as getting “Your Knees in the Breeze” or “Wind Therapy”. The thing is riding in very windy conditions is not a lot of fun. It can make you feel like you are being sandblasted and can make even a short ride and exhausting ride. You must fight to keep the bike going where you want it to go. You must lean into the wind to just stay going in a straight line and also be prepared to react if the wind changes or gets blocked. Wind can also try to take your helmet off your head so you end up hunched over to be more aerodynamic. Having a windshield may help when going into a head on wind but it can also act as sail depending on the size and shape of it. This is something that non-riders or new riders don’t think about.
