I found a pair of leather pants at a pawn shop cheap that fit over my jeans
that work well.

I have a set of cabellas wind shear 3 fleece. It is lightweight, impervious to
wind and amazingly warm for what it is. Wearing it over a pair of jeans and
under my textile jacket with the liner removed makes me sweat at 50, keeps me
warm down to 40, and is a little cool in the 30s. Mind you my commute is an
hour at 50 to 75MPH. Now if only my insulated leather gauntlets did as well.

I've got some cheap winter gloves that I bought from cycle gear that have taken
me down into the mid 30s for rides up to about 30mins or so. My problem is my
knees. I can never keep them warm enough.

Joey,
well done. The key for winter riding is to wear the proper clothing. I have
done 27-28 F, with the forecast saying "Feels like 24F". I admit it was dam
cold, but you just need a good pair of winter gloves.
This year I am thinking in trying the heated gear, no because I can't handle
the cold, but because it is a bit bulky. Besides, it takes me the twice as much
time to get on the bike.
I hope you are warm up already. Clearly you feel your fingers since you are
typing. :)
Javier.

Well - I made it - About a mile into it I couldn't feel my fingers
very well - about two miles my hands got stiff. Throttle hand was
particularly bad - but it was about 5 miles into when I started
getting pain like little needles stabbing my hands - that isn't good.
Pushed through it and got over here to my Dad's place. Had some
difficulty getting it into the shed - I couldn't feel my clutch hand
very well.
I'm gonna eat a warm lunch - including hot chocolate.
