GCN: How to Ride In Strong Winds

When the forecast is problematic on Tuesdays, I keep a close eye on weather alerts as well as communicating with other members of the TNR who are doing the same plus reporting on actual observed weather conditions. As most of you are aware, there is a wind advisory in effect for this afternoon. We have cancelled only a tiny handful of TNR’s for wind alone, but if we have to deal with blowing dust like on Saturday, that might make the ride too dangerous and logistically impractical. As of now, there are no plans to cancel the ride. We will continue to monitor the situation. It is a pretty big temptation for me to jump on the bike now while the wind is calm, but I planning to hold out for the TNR. In the meantime, this is an excellent GNC video.
