I really like warmer weather. I am one of those that would rather be on the warm side, than cold. Just deal with the heat better than the cold.
My jacket has one liner in it, a warmer wind water resistant liner. So far, I have not had the liner out. Even with the temps in the low 80's with sunshine, I have been just fine with the liner in, and have even appreciated the liner in certain areas. In elevations and with the winds, it has been fairly chilly at times.
Chance of rain over the next few days - Saturday looking like the best day for the weekend.

Does it feel chilly at night? Is a sweater needed?

Riding in the mountains is fun and can be challenging thermally
You can be hot on the sunny side, go through a pass into the shade and be cold. Plus, the higher you go the cooler you will be. So bring a variety of stuff so you can layer up. It's cooler in the mornings and evenings. If it looks like it's going to be wet, you don't want ventilated boots or gloves.
I don't think it will be too bad this time of year though

Like an onion... You want to be prepared with layers.

if your riding at night, yes a sweater plus jacket Lol
Just walking around town, has not been bad at all. It's really just the wind and elevation changes while riding when I've come through cool pockets of air.

Looks like the weather is changing a bit. Last I looked, Saturday will be mostly dry...Hopeful that the rest of the week will start to look better.

My ride down was dry. Beautiful day actually. Very light sprinkles a few mins ago. If Sat is going to be dry I may switch rides for which days. Park and BRP better if its raining. Dragon better if its dry.
