    I don't think you'll need both jacket and vest. I rode with cycling capris, jersey, vest, arm skins.

    Vest and arm skins make a jacket. Still cold? Add a buff. Still cold? Base layer like light Craft shirt. You'll probably only need that first thing as you ride out. You quickly warm up.

    In my 7 zip lock baggies of gear I mark one "cold" which has long sleeve jersey, craft or other base layer, wool socks, full length padded tights, full finger gloves.

    There's usually one day I'm thankful for that. Day 6 can be foggy.

    I'd save weight by packing 6 jerseys, get the official ALC jersey in the camp store early or at registration.
