Despite getting some winter gloves (spidis) and having some wind protection I'm having to use an extra set of fleece liners. Makes the gloves dangerously bulky.

Second on the list is a decent neckwarmer, mine's flimsy and not exactly designed for bike use.

Last is the helmet which seems to have a gap at the top of the visor specifically designed to freeze my forehead! Cheap bloody helmets.

So what's best? Don't mind spending top dosh if it's good kit as it's only going to get colder....

Cheers,

Ali

ps: can anyone remember where to get those earplugs molded to fit yer ears???

Honestly though, I can't possibly understand the thousands of feckwits that spend hours every morning queueing in their cars on the A40. Are their collective lives really so pathetic and worthless that they don't mind wasting 3 hours a day between the m25 and marylebone rd.

Thanks others for the recommendations, I'll check them out.
