If you are planning on riding in this weather (dry cold or wet cold) u will need:

rain jacket / hard shell / soft shell
base layer - merino wool
gloves - wind proof or fully water proof (waterproof will be windproof)
overshoes - wind proof or fully waterproof

optional:
cap - windproof or waterproof w/ flaps that will cover your ears OR
skull cap
neck buff / neck warmer

I will wear my summer jerseys as a midlayer so that I can retain rear pockets, and also use it as a layer to sweat into.

Once the temps are near or below 0*, i'll have a merino base layer, merino long sleeve jersey, and some sort of windbreaker / jacket on top.

Hat, gloves, overshoes are so important its not funny. You won't be able to ride your bike if any of those 3 things are frozen, even if your body is warm.
