Patrick: The two Steves speak the truth. I generally get free jerseys from charity rides or pick some up from Long's when they're on sale. I've had some smell a little after a century in humid Wisconsin summer weather, but not badly.
It may be that some of us generate more toxic sweat than others--but personally, I don't. Sheep or plastic, they all seem to smell the same when I'm done. Lycra shorts I wash after a long ride (I don't wear them for short rides) just as I would anything else I had used in those conditions. (I know Bill Cosby is a *persona non grata* these days, but I can't help but think of his remarks about his mother always insisting that he wear clean underwear, and imagining her reaction when a police officer tells her he's been in an accident: "Did he have clean underwear?" "Yes. We found it in the glove compartment.")
