Hello fall! 29°F this morning. First sub-freezing commute since last spring made me want to dress warm. I resisted the urge to wear my balaclava and just went with a head band to protect my ears. Rode a little more than 9 miles to this morning's work location. Halfway there I noted I had made the correct choice as the balaclava would have been too hot.

Fingers and toes were a touch chilly, but not terrible. Temp was right in that in-between range where my long cycling pants were too warm but shorts wouldn't have been enough. So at the moment the long pants are hanging up in the closet inside-out to let them dry out a bit. I brought shorts for my lunch commute to a different office when it's supposed to be in the mid-40s.
