Cold and drizzle for me as well, as I am talking about 40 to 30 degrees cold, it is a lot easier to recover and get warmed up (a nice warm shower) after a long ride in 40 - 30 degree cold than cooling off and recovering from riding the same distance in 100 degree heat in the afternoon, I live in the dry high desert climate so as long as I am hydrated properly and sweating and moving through dry air, the evaporative cooling helps a lot; but as soon as I get off the bike at my destination, home, air moving around me stops, I start to heat up and feel uncomfortable, and so not as easy to recover and cool off quickly when I get home or to my destination
