Heated gear is awesome stuff...I've got a full set. Honestly though you won't be needing it for this ride. Even if you're up there after the sun goes down it's not that bad right now. My gear is packed up until next Oct. or so.

Any other recommendations or am I over thinking it?

Over thinking it....enjoy the ride..like a fall cruise...but just dress appropriately..
