Wind can ruin a ride

I rode this morning to beat the heat and the forecast of rain, but ran into some very strong head winds. The winds were from the WNW at 20 mph making some of the hills murder to climb. I managed to ride 15.59 miles in 1 hr 11 min with an average speed of 13.09 mph and a max speed of 21.0 mph. I burnt 736 calories which I needed to burn after all the food I ate this past weekend. I am so looking forward to getting the new GPS so that I can have some accurate training results. But I will have to wait as Amazon has the slowest FREE shipping out there. It won't leave their warehouse until the 23rd. At least that is what their web page says.
