How do I warm thee? Let me count the ways

That's full winter mode for me here in SoCal, down to near freezing. Depending on temp, it could be regular full-finger work gloves, or biga$$ ski gloves.
In summer, the long-sleeve midlayer and the gloves go away, and maybe even the pullover, dropping to 8

A windy/sunny 0f/-18C the last 1/2hr of the ride, 17:
1 helmet, 1 balaclava, 1 base layer top, 1 jacket, 2 thin and thick long johns, 1 pants, 2 socks, 2 mukluks, 4 glove liners and mittens, 2 boxers.
Should have removed the thin long johns though as it was a little bit too warm down there

I wore:
Sports bra
Chonies
Leggings
Socks
Shoes
Long sleeve shirt
Gloves
Helmet
Sun shield
Sunglasses
Big scarf thing to cover my butt, because the leggings are probably a little bit threadbare at this point-and also, my butt is embarrassingly flat
Subtracted gloves, sun shield, and sunglasses for the ride home and added in a hoodie.

About half way, I really regretted not grabbing a scarf or my face-mask. My lungs haven't yet forgiven me.

Hiking boots w/socks. MUSA bicycling pants. It was right at 40 degrees and supposed to be warmer this afternoon, so I carried shorts for the ride home. An old marathon long sleeved t-shirt under a hi-viz w/reflective stripes long sleeved T shirt, and cheap ski gloves. A do-rag under my helmet. Underpants.

Weather: 31F, Calm Wind, Clear Skies
Ride: 5.1 miles, 23-ish minutes (Maybe longer, the City changed timing on some traffic signals and I don't check the time these days)
Articles of clothing: 22
2 Specialized Mountain Bike Shoes (Lace up shoes with SPD cleats)
2 Wool Socks
1 Cotton Boxers
1 Poly long underwear (bottoms)
1 Pants (REI "Mistral")
2 Leg cuff straps (Shoot, forgot about those for the vote: That's two more articles of clothing.)
1 Short sleeve tee shirt
1 Long sleeve tee shirt
1 Short sleeve jersey
1 Louis Garneau jacket
1 REI Windbreaker
2 Wool liner gloves
2 Windproof gloves
1 "Zub" (neck gaiter)
1 Windproof head cover
1 Helmet
1 Glasses
Good thing is the day will be cool enough for the ride home that I can wear all that stuff and not get too hot. I don't like the days when I have to wear a lot of stuff in during the morning ride, but need only shorts and a tee shirt for the afternoon ride. My panniers get overstuffed really quickly! HA!

I forgot to count my gloves (but did remember to wear them) and that would change my answer to the 11 - 14 category.
