always have a spare pair of clean, dry socks in your desk draw

Imagine 2 as the minimum, freezing days and mild days. Find dhb stuff is always nice and not overly pricey. If your 1 hour is in the London heat bubble, something like these roubaix 3/4 for the colder days

For mild weather, perhaps some regular bibs + knee warmers?Pretty much only wear trainers, so may need to invest in cycling shoes to be able to use a decent overshoe - overshoes I've seen for trainers in shops look massive and kinda too baggy for my liking.
Trainers are liks sponges for cold water, can get grim fast. Also, if you've not got mudguards on the bike, they make a huge difference on wet and cold days.

Definitely would be keen on not having to expose my genitalia getting changed in an office environment...
Disappointing attitude. Don’t bother turning up on Monday there is a box for your personal possessions on your desk. Can I remind you that all stationery is company owned.

I know I said I’ve not worn a full overshoe for years but from before that I have a pair of ugly as sin motorcycle boot covers that are ah-maze-ing in rancid weather.
Here they are,
They’re completely sealed at the bottom, with their own sole so keep you way drier than a cycling overshoe and extend a decent way up the leg so water doesn’t just get in at the top.
Like I say, look horrendous but in really wet weather I loved riding in then pulling them off to reveal shoes drier than people that had just walked from their car.

Thanks bunch for the answers all!
My commute will be around an 1 hour to a shirt+tie office (FML) by bike and I'd be especially keen to avoid public transport what with ya know and costs.
Fortunately working from home for now, but will try out a couple of your suggestions - main key is probably keeping the feet from getting wet whilst being easy to change out of too.
Seems like a couple bibs would be needed.
