I've played with this clothing thing, and have come apon a nice workable solution, I purchased an perl izumi windshirt with zip off sleeves worn over an old wool sweater, with polypro layers under, really nice! I still get a bit over heated, but I'm not swimming in my own sweat by the end of the ride.

This VB thing looks pauseble. I know one of the recommendations bikers get for keeping feet warm is plastic bags, like bread bags, so that might be a way of going for the feet. I may even try the VB vest on a ride, if the feet work out. Could change cycling altogether.
