Cheers bigtwin, I have a Helly under layer and I was after a windproof covering - I think you've 'got it' as to what I'm after - the Techlite looks promising. I spoke to a fella today and he mentioned a Craft top with a windproof front so I'll also have a look at those.
I think it's true about the Buffalo mountain shirts (the heavy pile ones) - from memory a t-shirt underneath seemed to reduce (not eliminate) their effectiveness but I've not used it with the Helly and that was for mountaineering where the phys profile is very different - bursts of exertion and a bit of standing around. Agreed, it's a non starter for cycling - too warm.
