Ride Motocycle against Gust Wind Video Clip

[BusyWeb]

Hello, there.

A video clip that shows how to react against Gust Wind.
Took during the local joy riding to the Joshua Tree National Park yesterday.

To get to the destination, had to pass Hwy. 62 which enterance road is famous for the GUST WIND.
Wind is always blowing at the road; mostly on West/East, and road streatched for miles on North/South.
So, especially with motocycle, riders have to deal with Cross Wind always...
Californian riders would know how the Desert Wind feels like.. ha ha ha

At this clip; starting about 3:30 to end of the video, you can see how I/bike were reacted against cross wind.
Sometimes wind pushed bike about a foot to the right...

These are what I did for it.
1. Leaning the bike throughtout the 3-4 miles long.
2. Lowered my body and moved my butt backward
3. I reduce speed for the safety reason; some strong gust at that time...
4. Lowered bike geat to 4-5 to get some torque.
5. and...high alert on the traffic >> changed lane to road side
6. ...

About starting at the 4:00 miniutes, wind is blowing...
