DHB or Decathlon are your standard responses. If you don't want bibs you may be able to get away with a pair of 3/4 running tights and just wear some normal shorts underneath.

I've got the bib, 3/4 version of those and it's pretty good from about mid autumn right through winter...

Got absolutely soaked on the ride home tonight. Luckily had a lightweight jacket in my pocket and my arm warmers. Feet and legs got cold though. Worth getting waterproof 3/4 bibs or just some warmer ones?

knee warmers and a lightweight jacket can just about go in a pocket even if you've got no bag (you're commuting, though?)

Wear them on the way in, carry them on the way back?

Shorts and short-sleeve top this morning, but jacket to go home - always contrary on the north west coast.

Shorts and t-shirt for me still. I'll save the warmer clothes for when it gets really cold, although might have to put socks on soon. I have enough 'natural' insulation to keep me warm enough for the half hour into work.

Chilly in Torbay today! Shorts, knee warmers, woolie boolies, deFeet gloves, merino s/sleeve, warm long sleeve jersey... Plus my awesome full-on racist (LOL) merino Buff!

Summer gloves and socks in the rucksack for ride home ๐Ÿ˜‰ But it was quite nippy anyway!
