Winter is coming, and I'm again faced with layering up for the next six months or so. I've always ridden year round, and I've always sucked at it. Last year I ended up in the LBS I work in (it was the closest place I could stop) with mild hypothermia even though I was wearing all the garments I had.

This year I'm not going to be hypothermic. I'm not. I need some suggestions for garments to wear through winter. In Ohio, the biggest problem through winter is the howling winds that go over the flat landscape, making wind proof garments a must.

Down to about 40°-45°, I'm generally good with thermal tights and a long sleeve jersey. My feet get cold so I think I'm going to get some shoe covers. Below that is where things start to fall apart, which is unfortunate since that's most of the winter. What does everyone else wear through the foul seasons?

A caveat: I'll order these things through work if possible so Giro, Giant, and Bellwether garments are preferred.
