Re: What's the coldest weather you've rode in?

Last winter I rode to a bike club meeting at around 7PM, on the coldest
day of the year. It was probably in the teens but really windy, so the
wind chill was supposedly -7F.

It wasn't bad riding there because it was mostly downhill and a pretty
quick trip. But coming home, my hands were freezing because the
handlebars were so cold, having been outside for a couple of hours. The
heat got sucked right out of my hands. I didn't realize what a difference
there could be, between a warm bike and a cold one!
