For riding near home (not touring), in spring and fall I often was not quite sure what to wear, and started keeping notes on what worked, what did not. I now have a text file on my computer in five degree (F) increments of what to wear from 20 degrees (F) up to 55 for bicycling. I won't paste it here because it is very specific to what I own, it would not be helpful to someone else.

Also have a second list in that text file for hiking, snowshoeing or cross country skiing from 0 (F) up to 35.
