With the winds gusting up to 50mph out here, I decided to take the train into LA yesterday. Better to err on the side of caution.

Today the high wind advisory is still in effect.

Wind is nothing new for the desert. I am just not ready to jump in and re-learn the technique to ride in it while it is tornado force! lol Ok, I know that is an overstatement, but damn it might as well be a tornado when it feels like I am making the longest left turn of my life!

I just want it to calm down and let me get back on my bike!

It never bothered me before. Rain, snow, wind... all of it didn't matter one bit. I don't know if it was ignorance or passion. Maybe I grew up and I am a bit more reasonable. Or just maybe..lol.. it is because this time around I have options. Back in the day my bike was my only mode of transportation. I had to ride to work and anywhere else I wanted to go. Now I have car and the train.

I sat on the train looking at the trees bending in the wind and saying "I could have made it!" lol
