Cold weather.

mmm, cold air. Your core temp will drop from the cold air and your body will use up energy to try and warm itself and so you'll lose energy. - my opinion

 

or work harder to maintain pace, which should work wonders to loose weight

will try in the morning

the nerdy answer:

 

fact 1:

cold air = increase in air pressure = more air / oxygen to the lungs = increase in performance

fact 2:

higher air pressure + speed = higher wind resistance

 

In my case:

higher air pressure + slow riding = no measureable increase in wind resistance

 

conclusion:

For me, it should be better riding in the cold.

For Cancellara at 50 km/hr it's probably doesn't make a difference.

 

Bottom line. I don't train when it's below 10 degrees, so I won't ever be able to put all this theory to test...
