I bike commute to work. It's such a short ride that I just wear regular clothes. Today was a cashmere turtleneck and jeans. It was warmer when I went home so I left off my bright yellow cycling jacket and I was thinking I probably looked fairly odd in my helmet, gloves and street clothes.

Cashmere is nice to ride in. I have a short uphill at the end of the ride in both directions and I don't get too sweaty. The ride to work starts off with a really nice, long shallow downhill and I'm typically racing along in the mid twenties. It can be a little chilly, so it's good for that too.

I tend to wear merino wool when I'm out riding to actually ride (not commute) in the cold.
