How cold is cold enough to break out the winter kits?

I'll usually wear a windbreaker and bib knickers when it starts to get cooler. If it's warm at the start but cooler at the finish, I usually just let my body temperature warm me up.

Usually around 40-F and under is when I start looking at my thermal kit.

How about you all?
