Yeah, the 30 degree temp swings are how I know spring is finally here. It was 43F leaving my home this morning. It will be mid 70's F or so this afternoon. I just dressed for 40's F this morning. But I use leg covers with my shorts. So I only swap a jacket for a short sleeve jersey and leave the leg covers and long sleeve baselayer off for later on. Was about the best I could do for this temp range. I also used open finger gloves instead of full finger ones. So they stay the same (I always like to wear some sort of gloves in all weather).
