The best crosswind was on the plains of western ND, the kind of gusts that turn trucks (and there were a lot of them) over. Nothing happened though, so no story... I slowed way down to lessen the sting which didn't happen though... And was riding sideways, like 50 degrees.Crosswinds! Another good one..
Hi Pete,About two weeks ago a nice young 17 year old kid from our church died on his first bike when some clod did a TIF on a residential street. It was reported in the paper this morning that this 47 year old @sshole minivan driver was unlicensed and uninsured.
To bad we don't have a button on the handlebar, right next to the horn, that would instantaneously change our motorcycles into 1974 Cadillac Eldorados or even city buses - for use when someone does a TIF.....

That would serve as an example for other inattentive drivers, it would be fun - and it would even the score, plus it would improve the average IQ of the municipality.....
TwoMany - how about THAT for your next electronics project?

Hi Pete,....on the other hand, flipping a switch tech and instantly going into "Cadillac Eldorado" mode would also be fun (although those old 60-70s land yachts didn't actually do very well in crash tests, even compared to modern lighterweight sedans).
