A throwaway top (as has been said) is essential- I once saw someone with a duvet! Less wind forecast now though still on the chilly side for me. Remember whatever goals you have for today the only one you can actually control is to enjoy it, find a way to do that regardless of how it goes otherwise and you’ll have a great day out.
