are your friend, because they allow you to quickly and easily find steep and straight descents that are going in the same direction as the wind. I quickly pinpointed my target hill and the section that I would be aiming to hit my top speed on. All I had to do then was wait for right wind conditions, a 20kph tailwind ideally.
