I love Winter, but I hate how long it takes to get dressed!

Could it be that you may just need to adapt to it
How does one adapt to cold fingers? I ride every day through all weather conditions, and have been for years. I can HTFU and all that, but I'd rather not have to.
Do you also get cold when you get upset?
The last time I was upset was when my dog died 9 years ago. Life has been pretty good since.

I'm going out on a limb here.
I find, sometimes, my hands are cold. Painfully so. Then, after a while, usually by about 7 miles into my 10 mile commute they're better.
I generally wear 2 pairs of gloves on cold days.
Otherwise, winter tights (roubaix), trousers over top, thick wool socks, toe tectors/overshoes, base layer (s/s), thin wool uniqlo jumper, thin jacket, gilet, hat (sometimes with ear protection).
I generally pedal in at around 20 mph.
Could it be that you may just need to adapt to it, rather than internet diagnosing yourself with Raynaud's? Because, do you have any other associations with it? Lupus? Rheumatoid Arthritis?
