Layer up. A couple of layers of expedition weight poly jerseys, a fleece vest, and a wind layer. Hardest for me are fingers and toes. Below 20F I use booties and mitten shells that I made myself, with fleece socks and homemade undermitts or gloves. I can ride down to 10F with that setup, and none of it cost much--mostly surplus, thrift store and homemade. I commuted all winter in Denver for many years. Some may not think that's serious cold, but it was all I needed except maybe 5 or 10 days a year.
