 Bike to shop 
It didn't feel like it was in the high 20's F as I rode my Rans V-Rex with the BOB trailer attached to do some grocery shopping. Maybe I'm getting acclimated to the cold weather. It usually takes a few cold weather rides before the blood thins a little and the hands are freezing. Using body lotion on the hands and face helps. Even at 25° F, I only needed a light fleece shirt and nylon jacket, jeans, neck gaitor, a thin headband and lobster claw gloves. The sun helped. Had I ridden farther than the 3 or 4 miles to the store I may have needed more gear, but not much more.
