whats the ideal clothing set up, im currently wearing merino base layer and cheap aldi soft top, which is fine until the base layer gets soaked in sweat and hence makes me cold, what is recommended to try and remedy this, thanks

    I reckon you need an outer layer that is breathable, the aldi one may not be, the sweat on your baselayer isn't getting anywhere with your current top.

    Depends how cold it is?

    I wear a base layer (from lidl (they are great)), team cycling jersey (as in my team, not sky) down to 10Cis...a Gillet with that down to 5C and then I switch to a thicker cycling jersey (gore) with a base layer below that.

    The leggings also come out below 15c.
