I ride back and fourth between work and home quite regularly. On paper, the way out should be easiest with only 97m elevation compared to the way home being 108m elevation. So why did the way out feel so hard??<\/p>\n

On the way there I had 89% headwind!!!<\/span> This gave me a feels like elevation of 170m<\/span>. Without knowing it, I had climbed up mow cop, our local climb (150m).
\nOn the way home I had only 14% headwind, <\/span>meaning 86% tailwind<\/span> making the 108m elevation only feel like 93m<\/span> elevation!<\/p>\n

Looking at the wind impact is quite amazing on out and back journeys because if you\u2019re going straight into headwind it has a massive effect! I\u2019ve done the journey before and it\u2019s taking me 33 minutes with a relatively easy effort<\/span> but it took me 50 minutes with the headwind<\/span> as it was today!<\/p>\n

Luckily I wasn\u2019t late to work but I did cut it close!<\/p>\n
