It's my experience that the first time trip to a destination is the best, regardless of weather.

Grand Tetons, Glacier National Park, Yosemite NP ... visited several times but the 1st time was just AWESOME for each :)
I do not full agree with your first statement.  I had been all through the Rockies, and 38 states with my parents by the time I was 18.

My third trip to Rocky Mountain Nat park, and Yellowstone was best, I was on a Bike for that trip. 

So I will agree first time on a Bike is best.

Got you.  I'm wanting to hit Glacier and Hwy to the Sun on my bike.  Haven't done that yet on a bike.

Done it once in 2002 after Sturgis and part way in late June 2016. Had to turn back as road closed due to avalanche dumping snow and blocking the road.  Weather can be a b**** in mountainous areas.
