Man-tights, a gillet and a skull cap. If it is really cold then motorcycle gloves.

You might be on to something here, have seen others do that too. You reckon it's worth a try?
I was specifically refering to bib thights. The Lusso stuff looks nice and well-priced.
Quite liking this too, but wonder how it performs in really low temps:

Best way to find out is give it a try I guess
Cheers, Giel

+1 for fleece lined pertex! i got some Rab Vapour-rise ones, along with a Rab jacket of similar ilk. keeps me sooo toasty, matched up with my helly merino wool tight fitting zip neck top - i used to work for Field and Trek, so nabbed this stuff at discount before the shop snuffed it
i have shyte socks and gloves though...used to have merino socks and altura windproof gloves. need some new ones though

I use a snowboard helmet for when it's proper kelt, keeps the wind off us ears and has just enough ventilation to keep me noggin in the "Goldilocks Zone."
And a £29 Matalan snowboarding coat over a patagonia fleece, over any old T. Warm as toast. I don't sweat much, even for a 14 stoner.
Goretex Ski Gloves from Tog24, Bargain £19 down from £50-odd. Not much movement in 'em other than being able to articulate the brakes. But on the commute I only use a few gears.
Flat pedals and decent hiking boots as me spd shoes are too well-ventilated to keep warm.
