    I don't dry mine because my hubby is notorious for putting my clothes in the dryer on high. It's not only bad for my bike shorts (I believe), but for everything else I wear, too. So to keep him from accidentally putting my bike clothes in the dryer on high, I warned him high and low not to put them in at all.

    I read recently that drying white clothes on high can make them dingy. I never knew that. My nice new dryer has all these cool settings that won't ruin my clothes, and I'm going to teach him how to use them if it takes me 20 years!

    It's also bad for the environment and for your wallet!

    Using the dryer less means big energy savings...

    I use a clotheshorse to dry my cycling gear and it works well.
    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
