Not quite as cold here in NJ, but it's been in the low 20's the last few
days so here's my additons...

6. Good boots.  Just got a pair of Alpinestars "Stage" boots.  My toes would
freeze in my old worn out "cowboy" style boots.  They're now staying toasty
warm all the way to work.  They're comfy for walking around in too.  I love
these boots.

7. Overpants.  I have Roadgear "Xcaliber" overpants.  Keeps me warm and dry,
and also good protection in case I decide to take up asphalt surfing.  Plus
I can wear normal pants underneath so I don't look like Nanook of the North
when I'm in the office ;-)

8. Electric vest.  Don't leave home without it.  nuff said.
