The Wind That Shakes The Blarney

I suppose it was 2 years ago that I vowed to stop complaining about the wind & treat it like a snarky friend; Nashville did not used to be Oklahoma but it has become so over time. Along Davidson, a wind from the North or (rarely the South) adds no danger to a ride since the bike lanes are protected by plastic poles & a car-parking buffer, but a strong cross-wind there can be deadly. Motorists entering or exiting the industrial businesses rarely have spare RAM to look for cyclists and a gust can blow your bike right into their path.

I did the regular loop near the Covid-19 testing center. Traffic was light & polite.
