Whether or not you want to put up with the unpleasantries of cold weather riding is another matter all together. I have also notice that riding in sub 40º temps isn't so hard. TRAINING (or pushing yourself) in cold temperatures is MUCH harder than doing so when it's over 50º. It can be done, it does suck.
