Default Favorite riding weather?


Well I was just outside riding in my favorite weather(a light mist and
about 65 degrees Fahrenheit) and I was wondering what everyone else's
favorite riding weather is. I did a search and unless I didn't search
hard enough(I'm sure someone will find a thread like this somewhere) I
didn't find a thread like this so, what's your favorite weather to ride
in?

'Dark, overcast' (http://tinyurl.com/6f6sbk), 62-68 degrees with
humidity in the 40-50% range, , and NO SUNSHINE! I will not ride in the
midday sun, or in temops higher than 75% if I can help it. And even in
the ideal conditions as I stated above, I still always wear full
spectrum 60 spf, long sleeve shirt, and sunglasses.

I like to ride in small rain, especially doing MUni with all the mud and
then it become all slipery which make the easy hill a little more
challenging. Overall, everything is more intense while it's raining...

But I still prefer riding in the morning, around 7-8 o'clock....

Very slightly damp cloudy and cold as ice is ideal. That never happens
much for me though where I am. Thats why I am not riding much now
because California in the summer sucks with 100+ days.

I live in Cal too, (Beach cities area of Los Angeles county) but even
though the summer days peak in the trip digits, it's perfectly cool and
in the 63-65 degree range when I start riding at 6:30-7am. I get my 10
mile Mun done before it gest anywhere near even 75 degrees!

Plus where I ride the whole trail is heavily shaded by the thousands of
tall oaks and other trees. Pretty much the perfect conditions. And
starting early leaves the whole rest of the day open for work, etc.

same for me (though may be with cooler temperature). I also love sunny
with below freezing temperature and slightly stormy weather. I can't
withstand too much sun or humidity and summer temperatures. waiting
eagerly for next riding season!

I like riding in below freezing temps, to the tripple digits, and
everything in between.

If I could be picky though, id like a sunny day, tempurature around
40-60, and low humidity.

Then again, humidity doesnt matter too much, cause I sweat a lot, so no
matter what, im going to be dripping sweat each time im riding. A lot of
sweat...

So yeah, favorite weather would be temps of 40-60.

Dark night time about 70 degrees w/ some sort of light so I can actually
see. I love riding in the rain but I hate how slippery my pedals get.
