I am a speed freak. I like to cycle as fast as I can. I always compete with myself and try to beat the previous record. During summer I can break my personal records most of the time. However in fall and spring there is a lot of wind here. Wind is killing my speed. It is so frustrating since I can’t come even close to my racing time when the wind is blowing to my face.
You are not alone in this. Nobody can be at his best when he has a strong force such as wind against him. It doesn’t matter. You have to concentrate on cycling as fast as you can. It isn’t important if you don’t break your personal record then. Your time may not be the best but you have been pushing at the edge of your capability. Thus, with proper rest and recuperation you will continue to make progress. It will not be obvious until the next calm day, but it is till there.
