Ken is right - the second-worst part of measuring when it is that cold is the paint won't work properly. It gets globbed-up inside the can, and won't spray.

Worst part is the toes going numb(neoprene covers help), and fingers getting too cold while doing what Guidos mentioned.

5ks are too bad, but I still draw the line at 20°. I charge extra for any measurement below 32°, because I often have to mark after my rides (I refuse to put a cold paint can close to my body), taking more time. I also use a pencil. Batteries will last through a 5k (I make a GPS track), but normally die during a cold 10k. I don't do 10k measurements below 30° any more.
