Sufficient for daytime riding, as well as south Texas "winter", I like buying bright color tee shirts from Velo Retro for my top layer http://www.velo-retro.com/T-brands.html TA shirt in orange, Zeus shirt in yellow, Campy shirt in red. Typically wear the cotton shirt over a merino base layer, the day (and especially humidity) dictating the thickness of the base layer. Plus a stuffable windbreaker, which may start off the morning and be stuffed away as I warm up. (another topic I guess, but also like knickers and knee socks with shorty socks spared). The Ikea vests are a great idea, and I'm happy to see more of them on the road. Though the majority of riders who come from the city to the narrow suburban/rural-cusp roads where I live still ride in black and without blinkies.
