 n\n\nCyclists - particularly in flat areas - will have noticed that wind i
 ncreases their total time to traverse a circuit\,\nwhichever way the wind 
 is blowing. Here we present a simple aerodynamic model to explain this eff
 ect\, and give some\nquantitative predictions. The results indicate that t
 he total journey time depends strongly on the wind speed\, the\nsensitivit
 y increasing with wind speed.\n
