On the colder days, I found my choppers kept my hands warm, but the biting wind caused my wrists to get cold. My wife is a knitter. She knitted up these wrist warmers and since then I've not had any issues. Thanks Angie!

Hands
I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out what would be the best way to keep my hands warm while winter biking. There are a lot of expensive options out there. Finally, I settled on the reliable leather choppers I've been using to keep my hands warm my whole life. The leather stops the wind and the lining keeps things warm.

Last week I rode to work on a day when the temp was -6F and the windchill before adding bike speed was -24F. Added to that there was 3 inches of new snow. My body stayed warm the whole trip. The only issue was a frosting over of my goggles. I have a few ideas to try our for a solution...
