You always have to spoil the fun with some kind of relativity comment... don't you?
just kidding
So... back to windshields, you know that warning that says you shouldn't go above 80 or it'll fly off and seriously injure or kill you... does that mean you shouldn't go over 50 if you're going into a 30 mph wind?
Rich... what do you mean pinned... WOT in 3rd trying to maintain 50, are you talking about sport bikes?
I know exactly the calm you speak of when passing a semi. Also if you feel more buffeting than usual and haven't changed direction... check around I bet you there is an SUV somehwere close in front of you. Those things chop that air up really nasty.
