Or.. this would be cool.
Ignore anything under 13 knots, then give us the average wind speed if above 13 knots (in the day). Assuming you don't ride at night.
A lot of us ride at night this time of year. I did last night with Tom and A-bomb.
Or, maybe ONE sensor that was worth a crap...lol....

I always ride underpowered, for one.

Then, I use glowsticks and a strobe on my board.
Always ride with a buddy too.
Be quiet if at Lassing. If at the Straub park, I guess you can hoot and holler until 11pm, upon which time they lock the gate on you and you are stuck.

Oh, lastly, alway strap a Wendy's double hamburger around your waist harness for the sharks, they appreciate peace offering!

Thumbs up Thanks for the info...

I just wanted to say TKS for everyone that has assisted with my thirst for knowledge in average wind speed and any other questions that I might post in the future! I understand where everyone is coming from, as far as day time wind speed and how often the wind direction and speed changes constantly! I just ask the questions so that I can get knowledge to assist me. I plan on getting some lessons later on this year around October when I go to Key West and so others when I return to the Bay Area….

Mahalo and keep it Irie
