@ai6yr asks:
It recently was raining and high 40's/low 50's with wind here, and I decided I would not bicycle to the store (having not researched proper clothing).
Q4. What would folks who ride in cold conditions recommend for clothing for cycling in very cold rain with wind? (I was worried about getting wet and cold and hypthermic).

I make sure I have enough layers to stay warm. Wool jumper plus windproof layer is good. Scottish rain gets through most clothing. If I'm going to be indoors at the other end for a while, I'll cycle fast to keep warm and take dry layers to change into at the other end. Also keep a close eye on the forecast - going early or waiting a few minutes can really help
One essential for me is knitted wrist-warmers. Keeps the draught, and most of the rain out
