I ride in layers and strip off as my body heat changes. I lose my outer jacket pretty quickly and stuff it into my pannier. I also use underarmour, which wicks pretty nicely, and a merino wool jersey (love 'em!!) with wind pants. I've ordered a pair of those wool Italian army knickers that keep getting mentioned on the list but haven't rec'd them yet.
