Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

One alternative is to get the neoprene wader foot covers with the soles on them if you ride platform pedals or Clip and strap. Wear WOOL socks (warm even when wet!), stay away from cotton and remember that cold air leaks past the tongue on most shoes. Another alternative is "Seal" socks. Waterproof and warm!
