I can deal with the near freezing cold we've had all this month, but not in addition to the 40 to 60 km/h wind nearly every day. It is just plain miserable to ride in. 3 years in a row the fall weather has been 10C below normal, maybe its the new normal. Half the farmers crops are stuck out in the fields again due to record intermittent rain. Usually the wind is all blown out by October making for cool but pleasant riding.
