I did a 500 mile round trip in the rain, at the beginning of April wearing all my summer gear.
Admittedly, I was also wearing a waterproof suit over the top, but it was warm.
Haven't worn my winter gear all errr...winter. Just wrapped up in my leathers. Only had to wear my waterproofs once as well.

I've had the lining in and out of my cordura trousers in the last 2 weeks as I was wearing them to ski in - had them in when it snowed, had them out when it was warmer. Perfect.
This weekend has also seen the reappearance of my leathers and my new summer gloves. Leather trousers need a bit of stretching as they are 2 sizes too small but still comfy :lol:

Went to the Southend Shakedown 2up on the SVs and what a day! conservative estimates of a few thousand bikes, 'The Sun' estimates of over 10,000 (actually believable). About 2 miles of bikes parked about 4 deep!!!
BUT BLUMMIN' HOT!!!!! Wish I'd taken the lining out of my jacket as well.
