The coldest would be in the low 20's but it was sunny and no wind. Wasn't to bad but I have had better rides.
The worst was in the mid 30's and raining pretty hard. It was decent when I started out but the weather turned bad when I was about 45 miles from home. I hated every second of that ride.

28 degrees was riding around the lake with a few friend. Left and it was around 50 degrees. Woke up that morning to frozen dew on the bikes (mine was coverd). Thank god a friend of mine (black3) talked me into his leather and chaps! The ride that morning from Escanoba Mi. was a nippy 28 degrees, but blue sky and sunny. It was a fantastic ride! Thanks to chaps, leathers, layer and amour underware.

Jesus, 25 pages of replies, again I only made it through the first few....
Fact, for two years while living in BFE, WY the only vehicle I had was my bike. Either I'm bragging right now or admitting how ****ing dumb I am. LOL.
To put it into perspective, most of Wyoming has about 6 months of winter, with temps well below freezing many, many winter days and nights.
So, yeah, I've ridden in some cold weather!!

13 degrees in 1962 from Denver to Milwaukee. Was dressed warm when I left, but not warm enough. Froze my butt off all the way. Windsheild frosted up and broke off. Ten miles
from my parents house it started snowing and I dumped trying to slow down for a stop sign. I was going to Milwaukee for a job and I left my car in Denver for the wife. Swore I'd never ride again and sold the bike. But then came spring I bought another and have had 19 Harley's since then. Now 40 degrees is my low. I'm 70 now but never plan on quiting, but
do park it in the winter.
