Gotta be a crisp sunny, but slightly cold Spring morning - no contest!
Autumn. Squelchy lanes, mudguards and chatting sh*t
warm Autumn, no rain
I'll say winter - just because it's actually feasible here
I love summer for it's crazy heat, sudden rainstorms and warm nights.
Winter. Proper weather. Coming home and only feeling your feet after 20 minutes in the shower.
Spring the classics season - wearing my Flandrian best!
June… long sunny days riding late into the evening, nature's greens still fresh and bright.
Spring, the winter is over and the light is back, there's some rain, some sun, not too hot, not too cold: it is the Goldilocks season - just right.
Each and every season brings something different. Autumn offers those crisp dry days when it seems like you can see further than any other day. Winter brings the rewards of self-generated heat whilst whizzing past freezing pedestrians, Spring offers longer days and brings the hope of a long hot summer to come and summer is the best, just shorts and a top and the open road, cycling through the haze.
It's got to be Spring. Roads are clear of grit, not too much summer traffic on the Devon lanes and the days are getting longer.
What's not to like?
Summer. I know I'm a wimp. Doesn't stop me for the rest of the year though!
I do love riding in the summer - clear blue sky, early in the day before it gets too hot - but I have to admit I've enjoyed riding this autumn too - still pretty mild, but some great variations in light and theatrical clouds. (Don't like it windy.)
Summer evenings for me - long rides after work, clocking up your final few K's as the time approaches 10pm, sun low on the horizon...magical.
Summer mostly, so I can get a bit of tan on the arms and legs! I also don't mind spring or autumn when it's wetter, because it makes the single track a bit more challenging.
Riding fixed through fresh snow on a bright morning. Skinny wheels treading where they perhaps shouldn't. Don't lean!
Spring, love the weather just before the summer. Not too hot, still a little freshness in the air
Autumn with its Cacophony of colourful leaves, and the cool breeze to stop me overheating.
Spring. Just starting to warm up and everything's coming to life.
I like the summer, after sweating it up on a climb the breeze on the descent is the finest form of bliss!
Winter. When its cold and dry and the sun is not quite up. You can't ride that fast in case of ice, so you get a chance to look around you. See the horses breath, the cows eating frosted grass, the odd robin on a frozen fence. you are wrapped up in all the gear you possess and yet the cold slowly seeps through to your very core. But you are out there, it is the most beautiful time of year, you are alone, its quiet and you are alive. I cannot wait.
Spring - after the long dark winter days it's great to be back in the saddle in lighter nights and warmer weather.
Winter booty. Yes please
the hotter the better... I like it sweaty...
Summer! The hotter the better!
Spring or autumn but not windy
Spring for threshold intervals and the Classics.
Best time to cycle? Whenever there's a vowel in the month!
a nice warm spring day
It's winter for me, anything but ice. The worse it is, the more heroic you are for being out at all. You get to wear your kit and man it out, Belgian hardman style. There's no such thing as the wrong weather, just the wrong clothes. Winter's where I earn those summer rides in short sleeves and where I build the legs for those sunny days.
