With experience and in a 2S nose dragger, a 25 mph crosswind at 45 degrees was a piece of cake for me. When I arrived at the 2012 KR Gathering I made my shortest landing ever in N886MJ. The weather was not good that day as a matter of fact I landed 30 miles northwest of Mt Vernon because I had to wait for weather to lift some over MVN. Anyway when I did decide to go in, MVN had 20+ gusting. I chose runway 33 and made the very first turn off and if you look at an airport diagram that is a very short distance. There was never a time in the 552 hours I flew N886MJ that the winds kept me from departing or arriving an airport.
