Heated vest. Warm core, warm extremities.

I'm not riding in the winter these days, but I did for years. I suffer from cold hands and feet, but riding in near-0c weather with my regular summer gloves and a heated vest I suffered no probs at all.

Was in the Coast Guard Aux in Canada (like the RNLI) and used to bomb around in a RHIB at 40kts in weather at/below zero and in rain and sea spray. Always had bare hands or light sailing gloves and had no probs as long as I kept my core warm (not too hard with a full floater suit on).
