Strong Winds! Slow Down.....??

  1. Who feels safer, less buffeted and more in control by speeding up?

    Is 'Slow Down' actually the perfect wrong advice? Is becoming a wind-driven thing by exerting less force in your intended direction of travel the right thing to do?
     
  2. wind doesn't bother me. i ignore it.

    ive ridden a vespa 250m 2up through a hurricane. A wee breeze? meh.
     
  3. dunno i forget. think probably speed up to a degree.
     
  4. stay mid gear, highish revs. But faster is better. Higher revs means that if the wind takes you, you can speed up to resist it. Works for me.
     
  5. I travel to work over the humber bridge every day. I have found that you get an easier ride by going faster.
