Definitely . One morning a few years ago I went out to cycle to work I was blown round in a circle 360deg unfortunately my glasses were blown clean off my face too On really windy days I walk past the tower block and the wind suddenly halves

248 mile per hour winds: that's what I call a training opportunity.

That's what I call a record breaking opportunity.
