Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I might be a bit type-a.

I'm still constantly making adjustments to the list and everyone seems to handle weather differently.

Wondering what your thoughts are on long sleeve thermal jerseys vs. jackets (softshells and windshells) with a base layer underneath? I hope to be able to ride into the high 30s and as I run cold need something in the low 60s.
I like thermal jerseys for dry weather and Castelli's Gabba 2 jacket for the rain. I wear the Gabba 2 for about 4 months during the winter with various layers underneath depending on the temperature.
