So different commute today b/c I'm hosting a conference downtown Boston vs. living and working north of the city normally. Ride in this morning was fun - no issues but the ride home was a little tense for me as a front is blowing in rapidly. This meant 40+ mph gusty crosswinds when I rode across the Tobin (tall-ish bridge) on the way home. It was really blowing me all over the place, there was construction so I was in a narrow lane of jersey barrier and guardrail and traffic was doing erratic speeds. All and all one of the least pleasant 5-10 minutes I've spent on the bike since I first learned to ride three summers ago. Prolly no big deal for some but it would take me some getting used to if I was going to do that on a regular basis.
