4 Tips for Riding in Crosswinds | Bicycling: "1. If there are just two of you, the person in front should move to the side, into the wind, and the rider behind can seek shelter by riding slightly overlapped on the lee side (downwind).
Prevent Paceline Panic
Pacelines are great—until someone surges off the front and blows the energy savings to shreds. When it's your turn to pull, whatever you do, don't accelerate. Keep an eye on your cycling computer and match the group's pace, says Shane Kline, a professional cyclist with Team Smartstop. No computer? Focus on how hard you're working. Your effort should fee marginally harder, but not like you jumped up an entire level.
2. The more riders in your group, the farther toward the wind the lead rider should move so everyone can find shelter."
