At what temperature will you stop riding outside?

Usually around 30. Then the wind chill is below zero.

I'm not sure. This will be my first winter as a cyclist. I'm sure I will have a fully-formed opinion in about 1.5 months.

I rode one very windy Sunday morning last January and didn't thaw until Monday morning. I think it was in the mid or high 30s when we started. Of course too, that takes into consideration that I don't have much in the way of cold gear, so I really wasn't prepared. ugh that was cold.

Like pf, I have very little cold gear. I'd probably stop riding around 40 degrees, unless it was something I really wanted to do. And right now biking isn't that high of a priority.

I'm a wimp. Usually in the low 40's is my limit. Can't handle cold feet.
