You Should try going over the QEII Bridge at Dartford on a motorised bicycle in even what feels like a light breeze at ground level. Terrifying, not least as the barriers are pretty much see through.On my vt500 I got to the bottom of my drive, got onto the road & the bike went from under me, I am straddled trying to stand up but the bike was sliding all over, guy at the side of the road just stood watching, eventually had to let the bike go, luckily no damage, got to work with no further incident.
Going home from work on a 250 superdream, going up a dual carriageway in very strong winds, got to open Countryside & the wind forced me into the other lane, luckily managed to correct it before I got to the roundabout
Occasionally went that way home if the Blackwall Tunnel was closed, sphincter clenched like a vice ten minutes before arrival.
