Headwind
========


Today  I  sort of  repaired  my  old  roadster bike.  The  single-speed
Czechoslovak bike made by the Velamos company in the second half of the
20th century. It is well used and I already replaced many parts.

The recent  problem was  the flat  rear tyre. So  I replaced  the tube,
re-seated everything and gave it a ride.

But it  was windy  today. The side  wind is not  a problem,  this heavy
machine with  rather wide 29" wheels  (40-635) is very stable,  But the
headwind! I had to pull my bike to  the hill as I was not able to climb
against this wind. Riding downhill was possible but not really easy...
