I have experienced this occasionally, during a ride my belly gets cold to the touch. I don't know about the physiology behind this, but it seems to be harmless. It happens easier with wind chill. I've seen some "technical" underwear with supposedly windproof layer in the front, maybe that would help without causing too much sweating.
