My commute is 11 miles each way and my feet are pretty well frozen
by the time I get to work in 45-50 minutes.
However, I think they're actually starting to warm up again by that
time (temperature decrease of toes has bottomed out). If I rode a
longer route, I think they might actually start to warm.
This happens with my hands where my fingers are at their max cold
(cold enough to be aching on thawing) after about 20 minutes. The
remainder of the commute they are warming up.
This is the case at and below about 10-15F. Above this temperature,
both hands and feet don't generally get cold enough to be aching on
warmup.
