Ok here comes the noob question.
What should I wear on Sunday? I was planning on wearing cycling shots, short sleeve jersey and wind-breaker. Just not sure if I will be warm enough. Any suggestions.

I would suggest bringing several clothing options with you to the starting point and deciding once you're there what to wear. As I recall, last year was very cold and I had tights, long sleeve windproof jersey and full fingered gloves, and I felt sorry for anyone wearing less.
A lot depends on your weather tolerance, but don't forget that if you judge what the weather is going to be like by looking at the predicted high for the day, that high temp will probably not be reached until late in the day, by which time you'll be off the road.
Also, a lot of the roads are tree lined, so even when the sun is up you could be riding in the shade.
As the boy scouts say, Be Prepared.

Thanks for the reply. I don't own much in the way of cycling gear yet so I will be taking a trip to the store this afternoon.

Jay68442, also remember the old saying, "If you are comfortable and warm at the start of a ride, you're overdressed." I assure you that you will warm up quickly once you start climbing a bit. And the forecast is for sunny skies and temperatures rising to about 70.
