Keep Me Guessing 🤔
The weather seems determined to keep me guessing. Certainly the wind does!
Last night the forecast showed winds of 6-8 mph early today; and winds considerably stronger by mid-morning. I went out on the hybrid shortly before 7:00 am, hoping to beat the strong wind home.
It felt like I hadn’t! Or am I just a weakling? Much of the time I seemed to have a headwind; and I had to do a lot of low-gear spinning. Maybe I had a sidewind that only felt like a headwind!
But an hour or so after I got back home, I went out (on foot) to do an errand; and the wind was definitely stronger than while I was riding. What would Robert Louis Stevenson have thought?
Sidewind 💨
A sidewind can be even trickier than a headwind; especially if it’s unpredictably gusty. It wants to keep me guessing; I never know when I’ll get pushed to the side. Then I veer all over the bike path!
Tomorrow I’d better get in some miles, because Friday there’s a 50% chance of rain; and even T-storms. I guess it’s the time of year for unsettled weather. But the weather keeps us all guessing!

ABOUT ME
I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.
I live in New Orleans; and retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
