That’s what clothes are for! I live in northern Indiana and ride through most of the winter unless the road conditions feel unsafe. The trick is wearing a second inner layer (easy if you go to work in a collared shirt or fleece) as well as a leather jacket, gloves, and bar mitts (keeps the wind and the snow off your hands). In the spring and fall I keep a light jacket and gloves in my bag just in case it’s unusually cold that day for whatever reason.
That said, some biking to work is better than none!

I basically grew up on a hill in England and that was way colder than Australia (it barely ever even dips sub-zero), so by lunchtime I’m wandering around in a t-shirt. Think the problem is waking up in a house optimised for air circulation but it’s not hot weather.
