Wind Speed Gauge

External Since: Jul 02, 2003 Posts: 43

I just saw a wind gauge for sale at radio shack (item# 63-1119) for a paltry
$14.99. I'm curious, if you're riding on a relatively windless day, and hold
this baby up while you're flat out, would it give you your speed because of
it's registering of the wind passing by? Unfortunately, it only registers up
to 30 mph. But, what if you had one that went up to 60 mph.

I bet it would be more accurate then the Ricky G "tree-o-meter"
