Using winter kit yet?

[mjr]

Well, I've worn a buff and beanie some evenings to avoid the chill North Sea wind freezing my ears, but generally it's still summer kit of lightweight trousers and long-sleeved shirt here. Yesterday was particularly warm, almost 28°c on the Norfolk coast.

My commute was at 5am and so it is a bit nippy at that time.

I moved into Autumn kit last week: three quarter bibs, long sleeved mid layer and Gilet.

Today, back in shorts and without the Gilet. Though the long sleeved mid layer remains. A balmy 14 Celsius at 7am.

It’s like summer has returned. No winter kit.

I'm not out until 6am but definitely still shorts, even warmer on the return journey.

long fingered gloves in the morning, but that's it so far.

3/4 length bib shorts with short sleeved top & a long sleeved top for the way in when it's 11-13 degrees.

On the way home, if it has warmed up, the long sleeved top sits in my bag.

I swapped to 3/4 baggy shorls last week and have been using arm warmers for the early starts or late finishes for a couple of weeks. I expect to be back into full trousers and thermal jersey when I go back to work next Wednesday.

I wear my hair down in the morning and tie it back up in the afternoon.

Winter bib tights here in Switzerland now. Still managing with just a long sleeve jersey though.

Did the whole 'long sleeved base with short sleeved jersey' thing on Saturday. Maybe I'll research how to pronounce gilet cos that would create a whole new level of wardrobe versatility...

I had to put a jacket on at 0530hrs on my commute Sunday morning, though it came off halfway. Might have to pull my socks up at this rate.
