BDifficulty 2/5

On a motorcycle, which wind tends to push it sideways and can particularly destabilise it when gusting?

Correct answer

Side wind, especially when gusting.

Crosswind. Changes in strength may alter the course, especially when leaving sheltered areas or alongside other vehicles. Reduce speed, hold the handlebars firmly and avoid abrupt corrections. This does not mean strong headwinds or tailwinds are always harmless.
