I probably had on too many layers in the morning - even for 47 degrees. This morning it was the e-bike. Just a little sweat. (this morning's commute was 53 degrees.)
For me, this week, in the 30s early on, on the Oly woodland trail, I still stuck to just a lightweight smartwool t-shirt (long sleeves) and shorts. I did wear shoes and socks instead of sandals though and after Monday I went for gloves w/ fingers instead of the fingerless ones. I also go uphill in the am and downhill in the pm. Bring a shortsleeve t-shirt for the ride home this time of year.
