Like you, I ride in a wide variety of conditions, but freezing rain is the least enjoyable conditions. It's damn near impossible to keep warm as the moisture gets right down to your skin. This was my ride back in November.

Thankfully my drivetrain stays clear of the ice.
This surprised me too, considering the way the RD and cassette were covered.
RE: Keeping warm--I had on more or less enough layers to keep the water from reaching my skin, but by no means water proof. Actually, I think the layer of ice covering me helped keep me warm.
