it’s windy as he!! in phoenix today and weather reports are calling for wind on race day. just like you asked. you rat bastard…
you’ll be just fine, just stay in the bunch and get out just for the sprints every 10km 
.
Francois–how hard do you think they will be on “bunching”.
the marshalls or the athletes?
Well, I guess I can flag down Kevin to help reason with the refs.
by the way, your windy as hell today, your wind gusts nearly reach our average wind speed
40mph avg with gusts at 47mph (62km/h and 73km/h)…
Just race to the conditions - I rode here today - and yes - it is WINDY - I saw a few folks with disc wheels - must have been an interesting ride at times for them!!!
Anyway - compared to today - the 12 mph wind forecast for Sat is NOTHING!!
It will be what it is - there is nothing more to it than that!

Nice try, but I know your confidence is shaken. your nerves are fried. you are rattled. why didn’t you train harder. you are just going to embarrass yourself. wind, wind, wind all day, just trying to hold onto your bike, 100 turns, exhaustion, all the time your cadence slowing, and then that run. quit, That Guy, give it up. quit now. Stay home. You can’t do it.
Dreamcrusher,
Nice work, Monk. That guy wouldn’t happen to be in your AG would he? Just a guess.
Quick ! hit him whilst he’s down !!!
Psychological warfare… ain’t it great !!!

Why? Wind doesn’t have any noticeable effect on a disk. Now those with 404/808/909/Hed3/Crosswind fronts, might have an interesting ride, but the guys with disks will just go even faster relative to the rest.
