 Daily Grind Part V
Wind continues to blow and did not look forward to today's ride with winds forecast at 29 mph. Had no joy on the ride but convinced myself it wasn't that bad, as temperatures were still in the mid seventies and I would be riding in a cold rain if I was home. Didn't really generate any speeds until I hit the tailwind section. Odd that in Texas the weatherchannel 'feels like' temperature was two degrees higher than the actual temperature with a near 30 mph steady wind. Is the opposite of wind chill wind warm? And at what temperature does it make the switch? Pondered the question on the ride but failed to come up with an answer.
