Favorite kit washing soap?

No one else has addressed this, but its probably a good habit to toss your kit right in the wash after you ride. I do a small load on delicate with all the bike stuff immediately. If you cant wash it right away, then at least hang it to dry.

I may be wrong about this, but most of the odor comes from bacteria living off of our juices, so the sooner you get the juices off, the better. Those bacteria have an easier time living on the smooth artificial fibers used in technical fabrics. They have a music harder time living on natural fibers like wool or cotton. Also, those juices have salt and other chemistry stuff Im not smart enough to name and they can break down your expensive bibs.

Lastly, once that stink sets in, it can be really hard to get out (my mtb shoes :frowning: ) so its really best to try to keep up with everything from the start.
