Add shivering to the list. The only time I've experienced speed wobble, descending Montebello Road when it was snowing.
Yup. And aging. Or, one of the best preventions is confidence. My bike that wobbles - only showed up once early on. On a cold ride with rain. Now, out of my early 50s and into my 70s, it is far worse. I carry warm clothes and stop and put them on for big descents even though I'll be on nice warm level ground in 10 minutes. On my other, non-wobble bikes I dress the compromise between comfort and convenience.
