Bikes: Giant Defy 2

This sounds on target. I see you are in England. Do you know of a common store where I might look at these articles of clothing? I wear mountain bike shorts to work and it sounds like these articles could fit in the pockets which would be ideal.
I thank you for the advice.

Lightweight core insulation: sleeveless gillet windproof or thin insulation.

Extra insulation: neck tube.

I alternate between insulating my legs and my upper body. Both ways work for me.
