2 way wind !!

[Louch]

When they go independent, will the Scots take the wind (and rain) with them

We don't really get wind and rain here, we just tell the English we do

 

[Shut Up Legs]

Only if the wind is from 90 degrees will it be neutral...

Actually, I've had cross-winds that were anything but neutral. Sometimes cross-winds can make cycling hard work.

And potentially very dangerous.

Sun and rain?nah as Mhor slaps on the after-sun after another weekend on the sun filled tracks of Renfrewshire

its amazing how even I tan in our pan flat landscape. the designing of the mountain backdrops so that no sun is blocked by them was a marvelous Scottish invention up there with the best of them.

I kind of believe this but only for parts of Scotland. Spent 3 days on the Isle of Bute last year and it was grey and raining all the way from Glasgow airport to the ferry, got to the island and it was dry and sunny for 3 days. On the ferry back it started raining and didn't stop until after i'd taken off from the airport.

note to security, need to make initial rain more intense, as some are persevering

Meanwhile back in Westminsterland there was a westerly in West London (I know this because there was a tailwind) and a southerly in South London (I know this because there was an oblique headwind, commonly referred to as a crosswind).

 

[Crackle]

I sometimes suffer from it. Coke is the worst.

 

[Pat "5mph"]

went out on a circular route this morning, wind was in my face ALL the way, i thought the 2nd half of the circuit the wind would be pushing me forward ?

Hahahha .... you presumed wrong!

If you're up again, shout! I'm not far from the ferry, and am originally from Bute. What you say re the weather there is correct, it has its own micro-climate.

Wind has peculair property to be in your face no matter which direction you are going. Bleedin' air molecules, can't decide where they need to be and rushing about evrywhere

Theoretically, if you are cycling quick enough you will always have a head wind, this is what I tell myself.
