Winter Shoes (w/ Speedplay cleats)?
Is that Reynaud's 853, 753, or 531? ;-)

I have mild Reynauds, so I understand your cold feet!
First, I decided to use SPD pedals in the winter on my road bike.
Since the road surfaces are more slick in winter, I wanted to be able
to walk in my cycling shoes without the usual impediments that the
exposed Look cleats that I usually use cause.
I bought the Lake winter MTB shoes. Expensive, but worth every penny.
I got them 2 sizes too big (I have wide feet). I replaced the stock
insoles with some Spenco crosstrainers. With a pair of cycling socks
and a pair of medium weight wool hiking socks they fit great.
When it is real cold out I put one of those chemical foot warmer
packets over my toes between the socks. With this set up, I can ride
into the teens without cold feet.
For my hands, I use Pearl Izumi lobster mitts, and if it is frigid out
I'll use the chemical hand warmers in there as well.
Hope this helps.
