After a good ride on Saturday, my feet were cold and fingers very cold :(

Ok on my feet I just had a pair of Cat socks and trainers and my I had a pair or Gore gloves, but nothing was man enough. Ok now I need some recommendations places for warm/dry socks, shoes and gloves for winder including rain.

Defo check out sealskin socks and gloves, they are both fully waterproof and very warm

For shoes have a look at 5tens, most popular out there!

Football socks, cheapest snowboarding skiing gloves (decathlon), on-one had some winter ones for a tenner a while ago
Shoes anything will do, its the winter, get 10 pairs from sports direct / shoe zone for what one pair of 5tens cost assuming you ride flats and not clipped in.

These are the gloves I have http://www.evanscycles.com/products/gor ... s-ec024451

I think I need liners or warmer gloves and definitely some good shoes and socks!

I use Fox Antifreeze gloves and they keep my hands toasty warm. They have a liner which is removable when your hands get too hot and do get good reviews too.
