Again, it depends on the temperature.

For the head, I wear a thin fabric baseball cap under my bike helmet to keep the rain off my glasses. Make sure the brim is longer than the helmet sun visor.

For my body, in warm weather, I wear a garbage bag and bare arms and bare legs. It's easier to just wipe off the water than deciding what to do with wet clothes.

If it's cold, I wear a breathable, ventilated MEC gortex raincoat. For the legs, rain pants.
But you'll still get as wet inside due to sweat so wear long sleeves inside. Forget about going fast.

For the feet, if it's warm, Croc Swiftwater Mesh Deck Sandals

and neoprene diving socks. Tilley quick drying socks help.

If it's cold, wool socks inside a plastic bag before you wear your shoes.
