Wind

I currently live in Kansas, which means one thing in the springtime ... wind.

I cycled all through winter. I battled sub-freezing temps, rain, snow, ice and (worst of all) slush. Without much problem at all.

But now the weather's warming up, and the wind is kicking into high gear. The last couple weeks it's been rare to have a day without at least 10-15 mile per hour wind. The last week has seen many days with 20+ mph winds. And it's really taking its toll.

It's an odd sensation to wake up in the middle of the night wondering what it is that woke you up, only to realize that it was the absence of wind noise that did it.
