    ...the wind doesn't bother me as much as it used to...especially on still, calm days...

    Biggest cause of wind around here is the wife's home-made bread, especially the wholemeal stuff.
    Good feed of toast in the morning and I can sit at my computer all afternoon without needing a chair.
    Rocket fuel.

    As for cross winds, the fairing makes a difference. The DR isn't bothered near as much as the Sprint.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    Was caught in a southerly change here in Welly down by Island bay on the sea front. It lifted the magnetic tank bag off the tank which was interesting as it contained 5 kg of potatoes and a bottle of wine AND was shielded by the fairing.

    Mind you nought as bad as the old days when it was properly made etc or as bad as the Severn Bridge (which moves) or the bridge in Windwhistle with a dog on the back and all the camping gear.
