I have a teknic leather riding suit which seems to work great for temperatures between 10C and 25C, but over the next few weeks the temps are going to get cooler and there is a ride coming up in 3 weeks where I can expect to be riding when its as cool as 0-2C in the morning then rising to about 12-15C during the day.

Can someone suggest gear and/or a place where I can point and click (i like bikebandit) to make riding in this temperature range comfortable?  I think with some kind of windbreaker it would make the suit usable, but im also open to other gear options.

Thanks!

joe rocket ballistic men's pants...they are synthetic with armor....zippers in the crotch and legs as well as buttons on the legs and a Velcro "belt" .  it is very warm and zippers into jackets there are also Velcro ankle straps.  wear sweat pants or other warm clothing underneath as well as regular ol insolated boots.  there are some very warm jackets, at low cost, with great linings that will zipper into these pants.  also find a jacket that zips up to your chin.  believe me u will want that.  as for fingers you can use off the shelf leather gloves with insulated linings.  i ride from April until December using these.
