Any solutions other than waiting until it isn't so cold out to ride?
I am wondering if you're not asthmatic. I am, that is, the cold can take my breath away. I take it easy when I go outside until my body gets used to the cold. I would suggest trying not to take too much air via your mouth vs your nose. I backpack in winter where it gets well below 0F but an initial walk in the early cold air used to be humbling.
