I got blown across into the opposite lane this morning going along Oriental Parade - thankfully no cars coming. Tomorrow I'm taking the bus..

I love riding in the wind down here, adds to the excitement and makes splitting a little more daring. Best advice is to relax and if need be put the knee out in the direction the wind is hitting you i.e if wind is hitting your left side jut out your left knee....
