It's time for a windy morning dog walk. Mr Woof always looks so sleek and streamlined with a headwind, then we turn around and get a tailwind and he looks like a complete mess. Wind creating a part around the butt hole is never an attractive look. 💨🐕
I really felt it on the last stretch of the ride to work. They're still building out this industrial area so one part is just a massive open field with a road going through it and I copped the full headwind.
I feel like a headwind might be better than a side wind when riding, it makes for harder work but doesn't impact balance as much.
I'm on the edge of a new estate which is surrounded by open fields on three sides and still has a lot of vacant blocks and very little vegetation, so the wind gets extra wild through here too.
I feel your pain, mr woof (except for the butthole bit, fortunately). Arrived at work sporting the ‘dragged through a hedge backwards’ look today
