My solo flight to KVSF from KLEB in a Cessna 172 to practice short field landings and take offs. I was a bit concerned about the winds picking up and indeed they did. I did several landings, full stop, on the short/narrow runway and then tried a crosswind. After a good bounce and go-round I headed back to KLEB where I found winds 11 knots gusting to 22 knots!
