Depending on what I'll do at the destination I have light trekking trousers, in summer with zip off legs. When it's getting cooler and I plan to walk around outside or sit down outside I will either go for heavier canvas type trousers or maybe with some added thin insulation, maybe fleece. As a sweater I really used to like the icebreaker hoody, but their quality has declined in the last decade. Still, those merino shirts are comfy and don't smell as quickly as lycra... important when you sweat easily and a lot. I usually bike in thin triathlon shorts until there's snow on the ground or the temperatures drop below - 5°C (for rides <45 minutes). Upper body (cooler temps): merino shirt and either long sleeve winter cycling jersey, maybe with a wind breaker jacket on top, or merino plus my GoreTex rain jacket.
Location: Northern Florida, USA

I often have sweaty legs after the ride so something breathable is perrrrfect and what I'm aiming for! Temperatures are around 30 to 50ºF (0 to +10ºC) or a bit warmer. Wind or water proof is not a requirement, but an advantage #help
I use Bontrager thermal tights, but got one or two larger than what I should be wearing so they are not actually skin tight but still cut the wind. I can't wear them much in Florida, and even on my northern trips they are too warm (for me anyways) at temps much above 40°F since my legs stay pretty warm cranking up the hills. They were fairly inexpensive since I bought them in FL where they weren't selling very well; go figure. $30, but normally around $70-$80; black with zipper fit at the ankles (mine being oversized cover my shoes little, which was perfect); and some reflective stuff somewhere on them.
Take care,
Jesper
