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!
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-

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.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
