The only time I don't wash after every wear is if it's a recovery ride with very low effort, or if I'm wearing my wool. The wool gets washed very infrequently!

Ditto. It's not inconvenient if you have lots of biking/workout clothes.![]()
Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
True... and I do have a rather large pile come laundry day... but honestly it isn't that inconvenient when I'm traveling, and just bring one set of running/gym clothes to wear and one set to wash. Just takes a couple of minutes, some dish soap, Dr. Bronner's or hotel shampoo (no bar soap!), and odors come right out in hand laundry with a little extra attention to the armpits and cr*tch. Cycling shorts don't always dry overnight where there's high humidity or low air circulation, so a third pair of those is good when I'm riding every day.
boy i sure love my ibex and smart wool. (and heck, my second hand store wool sweaters for that matter!)
