Is there anything I can do to make my cycling gear smell less after I have arrived at work?



My problem is my baselayer tends to stink. Then I stink when I put it on at the end of the day to get home.



Can just feel the comments from others. Geez what do you expect! Am I suppose to bring my entire wardrobe to work.

I have a similar problem. My cycling shorts and jersey get quite nasty sitting in a locker at work after a sweaty morning commute.



I rinse shorts, jersey (and helmet) in warm water, then them where they can dry during the day. (There is no theft risk where I work.) This helps substantially, although it's only partially effective during the height of summer where I live which is and hot and humid.



I also keep a number of jerseys in rotation so each gets a proper wash after each hot commuting day.

  • Seconded, though I only rinse the damp parts of my gear as they don't dry enough, otherwise. Means I tend to cycle home in slightly damp gear but at least it's fairly clean damp.
