The wind teaches us many lessons on a motorcycle. A forward wind tells us to not ride so fast; relax and enjoy the scenery. Not heeding this lesson results in rider exhaustion and poor fuel efficiency.
A rear wind teaches that there are times when the natural elements can help the rider by making the path easier to navigate with less energy required.
A side wind teaches that it is folly to directly fight some forces. Trust yourself, your bike and ride easily through the crosswinds. Enjoy the lean, don't go so fast and use your mind to maintain the line.
It regularly surprises me that lessons learned on a motorcycle are directly usable to life.
Ride safe, all. There will be a tailwind eventually.
