15-25c is nice weather, also good for riding but not prime.

under 15c and it's getting cold, we will normally start to layer up. I've been riding in the 0-4c mornings lately as we're in the dead of winter, and some of my suishy in the middle riding partners have been bailing out due to the chill.

It's all about what you're acclimatised to.
Indeed. The problem is that we have 4 seasons here and the weather varies from -30c (-22f) in winter to +30-35c (85-95f) in summer. It's hard for a body to constantly adapt
