Lets face it, these types of signs are a biker's paradise and a cage's nightmare.

Bring on more of these signs! Everybody, post your favorite!

Here's a good one I found in Newfoundland this summer. I was windy, but not as bad as it could have been. Only had gusts to about 100 Kph that day.

Wind blasts

I once cut through the SE corner of Colorado and the wind was blowing so hard I kept the bike at a 45 degree angle. That was a pretty tough hour or three.
Wind is fun crossing the Mackinac Bridge from the mitten of Michigan up to the UP or vice versa. First you get the bike leaned into the wind, then you come to the gridwork portion of the bridge and look down. Feels just like you are flying.
That makes the heart pound.

This is on the Talimena Scenic Drive, just before the descent down to the eastern end (some say the best part of TSD!) Notice the fog and mist. Between that and the sign my S.O. was nearly scared out of her mind!

With the Salzburgring track just down this twisty road a bit and a lot of racer wannabees out there, they were losing a lot of riders.

This sign basically warning riders to wise up or that section of road will be closed to motorcyclists.
