Yes ring them out thoroughly! If you have someone to help it is much easier as a two person job. Hang them a big (if you have time) then roll them in a towel before you go to bed. I have not tried to hang them after rolling but that might work two.

You could always experiment at home and see what works best.


I also take a length of rope that I use to tie up my bike box for shipping. It doubles as a clothes line while on tour.
