Wow I totally missed your post but I enjoyed reading it now, and your welcome for the Decathlon tip, it's like you say when you're doing the work you might as well get some extra small reward for it! 😁
Damn, that Saturday was horrendous, I went out on a Sunday and reach speeds of 43, on my MTB! And by then the wind speed had about halved, I remember thinking Saturday 'I'm glad it's not my cycling day' 😅
