Here in rural NY DH and I went for a hilly 17 miles at 35 degreesF...but it was partly sunny and no wind, so we were fine. Got a good leg workout.
I wore 3 pairs gloves, 3 pairs wool socks inside hiking boots, 2 tights, 3 merino tops, a wool helmet liner, and a hi-vis wind vest. After climbing a few hills I took off one merino top. On the way back (mostly long cold descents) I had to put it back on again.
We are expecting 3-7" of snow tonight, so I guess I'll be snowshoeing tomorrow instead of biking.

I went for a hilly ride today and covered 24.7 miles. It was overcast, windy and mid 30's. I felt good during most of the ride but on the way back I started to fade a little. My legs were getting fatigued after doing 83 miles this past week. I wanted to get in as many rides as I could before the snow showers came.
I've moved up to #6 in the TE club on BiJou. 
This is so fun and I really enjoy being a part of a neat group of cyclists.
By the way, is it *cheating* to add indoor miles too?
