Purveyor of fine nonsense
Don't you just love it when you are riding with the wind, i.e. so you are perfectly aligned with the flow of the wind, and you hit a certain speed when you are moving at precisely the same speed as the wind?
I hit that "sweet spot" on the way home today - booting along on the flat at 30mph, felt like I was hardly trying at all, and I started sweating buckets because I couldn't feel any air flowing over me at all - I was going at exactly the same speed as the tailwind. Wierd feeling, very surreal, but exhilarating!
It only lasted for a mile or so before the wind changed direction and speed slightly.
