Shoe covers are your friend.That the problem I am having, lack of toe movement with Browning Wool Socks. They keep my feet warm, but the lack of movement is just as bad!. Probably going to pick up a size larger set of shoes for winter riding. I am ok at 40+ degrees with my shoes and regular cold weather socks. But below that, have to go to thicker wool socks. Tried a liner under the winter socks, but that did not help.
I did a ~23 mile group trail ride today at Brown County, Indiana. We started around 10:30 and ~80F but ended around 4 and 95F. I'm beat.

I drank around 4 liters of water plus a 32oz Powerade with my lunch and still needed more once I was done.
No, I didn't wear spandex, sorry WFO.
