So when it gets into the 20's F I used to don as many as 4 layers including my outer wind shell, but with this new jacket I'll probably only need 3 layers at the most. I've ridden in the upper 30's with just a base layer and the jacket and was quite comfortable.
This is what I got, unfortunately the huge sizes and red color is all they have left. I got an XL high-viz yellow.

Nice deal!
That's similar to what I wear. Mine is a Pearl Izumi that I found at Marshall's. I think I paid $50 about 2 years ago. Only bummer is I fell about two weeks after getting it and put a small hole in one arm. It has reflective strips the length of the torso both front and back; kind of Tron-like.
