Default How CoLD?

At what weather temperature do you refuse to ride, without the use of electric pant and jacket warmers....40, 30 or 20degrees:

Here in Atlanta it was 40 degrees and it wasn't that bad on the highway......

Like I said before, as long as there isn't any snow/ice on the roads and it's decent out, I'll go for a ride. Granted, you can't have that much fun in the twistys, but it's nice to get out and go for a nice long ride. Yeah, in the Winter it can get purdy chilly but it's worth every second on the bike.

Golfing and riding are my 2 favorite things to do, which kinda sucks because they fall within the same "season". 99% of the courses out there are shut down for the Winter for many reasons which leaves riding my only option for Winter. I'd probally go nuts if I couldn't at least ride so I'll put up with the harsh cold weather, don't want to, but I will.

35 is about it for me. As long as there is no snow, ice or bad salt onthe road I will ride. i sue to ride my qaud all the time in the 20's and do it all day. I like to ride when it's 50-70 out. When it's real hot I sweat to much in my gear.

Super bowl sunday this year I rode from Macon to North Atlanta on i75... it was around 95 miles and it rained half the time... I found out once I got there that it was 23degrees outside the entire time.
