After this weekend and getting some nice cold brisk headwinds I think I've come to the conclusion that:
Lousy Bike + Tailwind > Great Bike + Headwind
That pesky headwind just makes every revolution a little bit harder. Especially when you're cycling along the coast and it's a mix of headwinds and sidewinds. I'm too big (read: fat) for the sidewinds to really push me around the road but they just seem to thicken the air that I'm riding through.
One thing I haven't figured out is how going into a headwind with a great bike and lousy posture would be juxtaposed against a lousy bike with great posture. Of course this is because I have perpetually lousy posture.
So inflexible...
