Gear recommendations

I just started cycling, riding about 30 miles a week, mostly with a group ride on Wednesday mornings. I am looking to increase my mileage this winter (I'm in Texas so winters are mild). I also run about 20-30 miles per week. I would like to purchase some cycling gloves, but would like a pair that work well for running in the cold too. My temps rarely dip below 30, mostly 30-50 through winter, so lightweight warmth is fine.

Anyone have a pair/brand they love? Any other gear you can't do without? I need to get a cycling jersey with pockets at some point, but haven't found an affordable one I love yet. I do have padded bike shorts (hallelujah!) what kind of wind protection do you like?

Thanks for helping this newbie out
