"a windy single-track section"?

Wouldn't that be "a winding section"? -- User:Haraldmmueller 17:00, 15 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Good question. Both statements are valid from a language point of view, but mean different things. Windy would mean it was susceptible to high winds. Winding would mean it suffered from excessive curvature. If I had to, I'd guess that the original editor meant 'winding' rather than 'windy', but it is just a guess. A source would help, so I've asked for one. -- chris_j_wood ( talk) 16:25, 16 May 2016 (UTC) reply
It's certainly rather "winding", I live near this line and know it. That's just my personal experience however, don't have a source right now. Gestumblindi ( talk) 22:06, 17 May 2016 (UTC) reply
