I've been a victim of Rule #1 even though I don't ride with cleats!

As for the wind. Riding in a city you'll soon learn that the wind comes from every freaking direction due to being blown around buildings.

UNIVERSAL TRUTH OF CYCLING #5: CYCLISTS FIND THINGS

For me it's - I got it at Augie's -
"Augie's Roadside Boutique - it's where you find it"

Clothing, tools, money, - it's all there at "Augie's"

Augie is a local (around here) well known longtime rider who is famous for his 'finds'.

I've found the exact same thing. I can't tell you the number of rides I've been on when I've been surprised by the wind direction. Sometimes it's nice and you get an unexpected tailwind. More often it seems to be yet another headwind.
