It's just a case of what you're comfortable with and what the weather is like. I've learned I don't need much to be comfortable and get annoyed having stuff with me.
Just take what you're think you want, if it's too much you'll know for next time!

I didn't know gooch cream came in sachets. That seems like a good idea. I'm asking really to make sure I don't forget something obvious.
I was thinking for the cycling part: Jersey, bibs, arm and leg warmers, packable rain jacket, gloves, sun glasses, 2 pairs socks in a (wear one wash one). Possibly base layer if looking cold
Off the bike: 1x trousers, 2x tshirt, 4x underwear (can't beat fresh boxers), maybe trainers, maybe jumper. Toothbrush.
Tools :2x tubes, multi-tool, spare chain link, stick on patches, pump, spokey, cable ties and some tape.
Misc: Garmin, phone, charger, map, NUUN, Chamois cream. Lights are dynamo powered so they aren't a concern.
@skinny and @andy_k any further suggestions for adding or removal?
