I have never had an issue with odor staying in my cycling clothes. Nor has my DH, or either of my sons. I wonder if it's the detergent I use, Arm and Hammer Free and Clear. It's interesting to read about all the different things people use to wash their clothes.
I did use Febreeze spray to get the smell out of my younger son's room when he was in HS and he would leave his dirty cycling clothes in his laundry basket too long, necessitating de-fumigation.
