I have no idea of this cold you speak about.  :P

I went outside a few times today for 5-10 minutes each time in with no jacket and a short sleeve shirt, no big deal
I did put on a jacket when I ran out to load some stuff from my garage onto a guy's trailer though

We've been in the teens at night, and round 20º-30º highs the past couple days.  It's chilly.  Plus, sand and salt on all of the roads makes riding a bit hazardous.

I usually stop when they start salting and won't go out again until a good rain gets rid of the salt but otherwise will go out down into the 20's

I'm with Lethe.  I do, so long as the sand/salt isn't an issue.   Somewhere, there is a picture of my bike parked on front of bank sign showing 9ºF

Yep.  I've been afraid to add heated gear because Molly's (1999 M750) electrics can barely keep the battery charged.  I've just stuck to layers with a nice Tourmaster coat/pants over everything to keep me from being totally frozen!
