I was kidding honestly. Initially I wrote -10 because that's the reality and then I felt like I was being "that annoying guy" so I changed it in an act of self mockery.
That said, I'm a pretty cold tolerant person. I use simple leather gloves with a thermal liner such as Kincos or something when it's less than -10. Above that, I have an old pair of free Gore mid weight gloves.
If you're really cold, lobster mitts are the only way to go. Mittens would be better, but not suitable for a bike with gears and brakes.
More importantly, if your core is chilly your limbs will vasoconstrict and always be cold. Keep your core warm.
