“This afternoon I rode in about 20 MPH winds and it was extremely dangerous. It felt like I was riding on ice or glass. Any slight burst of wind pushed my motorcycle into a dangerous lean. I felt it the most while traveling at speeds between 30 and 45 MPH. I've ridden many different makes of motorcycles and have never experienced anything like this. I did not feel like I had control and even had to pull over a few times to avoid loosing complete control.”
