How many coats?

I'm carrying two coats, a cycling coat and a windbreaker. It seems like too much to me, seeing the average weather forecast. What do you guys think? My backpack is weighing 8 kg. Thank you!
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.

Have you worn either of them yet? I don't know what a cycling coat is, but maybe you could just go with that as long as you have a rain coat or poncho in your bag, too. I've worn rain coat and rain pants to keep warm when needed.
 
Train for your next Camino on California's Santa Catalina Island March 16-19
Do you anticipate needing to wear both at the same time? If not choose one or the other.
Yes, I did it, and it will be more than enough. I will do this, choose one of the. Thanks for you reply!

I have a poncho, so I think one of the coats will be ok. Thanks for the reply!
 
One jacket, like my Marmot Minimalist Pro, can serve as rain-jacket, wind breaker and for warmth with a layer underneath. At 15.5 ounces, it's not too heavy to carry.
