If its cooler I may rethink my gear choices.

I may also have some extra room between the tailbag and the hard bags too in case we need to stow some extra stuff. My last weekend trip I had more than enough room with just the hard bags but this trip is much longer so I will be bringing more clothes etc...

I would definitely bring a heavier pair of gloves. Not just gauntlets either- something insulated. Most gauntlets won't do any better at keeping your hands warm than a street short cuff. Early may will probably still be in the 40s at night. A pair of long underwear or overpants is a good idea too.
