In So Cal valleys, high 30's/low 40's is usually the coldest it gets for me. My preference now is just to wear MTB shorts over bib shorts for the wind block.

If needed, I will wear a pair of Woolie Boolie longer socks but that is rare.
?? You're talking about wind resistance? Neither knickers or tights interfere with your pedals. Or are you referring the extra strength required to bend your knees while in the pedaling motion?
