I am gearing up for a 40km TT. It looks like the air temperature will be 6 celsius, at best, but probably 2 or 3. My torso, head and upper legs should be fine, but I am worried about my hands and feet. What is my best option for staying warm (or at least not freezing those parts), while maintaining some aero-ness?

For your feet, the VeloToze booties (basically swim caps that go over your shoes). They are primarily for aero, but block out all the wind. You can also wear thicker socks (wool) and not pay a penalty with the covers on.

Castelli long sleeve base layer with the Gore on the chest under a long sleeved skinsuit. Either buy the shown shoe covers OR slip a latex glove over your sock then put the shoe on.
Same for gloves for hands. To me, it's not safe to freeze your fingers hoping you won't need to use them during the race. So.....I run the thinnest/smallest glove I can and wear a latex glove before putting them on.
Your hand/feet will sweat with that. So, I wouldn't do that for a super long distance. Just something like a TT.

Put these on top of your toes before putting on your shoes. I use them all winter.
