Full Mudguards , Cyclist rain cape **, I was using a Sou'wester with a wool hat under it
Helmet with a warm lining and a rain cover on it, planned ..
Rain pants under the cape if the rain is 'falling' sideways..
LL Bean Rubber bottom Shoes ..
Rain bike* with hub dynamo powered lights..
IF gets Icy, I *also, have an old MTB in my basement with studded tires..
It happens less often than further inland.
** Cape drapes over my hands , in gloves . not needing them to be _waterproof"
I've never had dry hands in any gloves in steady rain , best was a shell + a liner glove,
so liner could be separated, to dry quicker..
