I wear wool, and have worn a jersey for five days straight - i even wore it off the bike - in 100 degree weather. it was pretty salty by the fifth day. Generally, i wash my jerseys about half as much, usually get 2-3 days out of a wool jersey before i wash it.

I do bring 3 pair of shorts on traditional trips, and rotate thru. wear 1 pair, 1 dry pair in panniers, 1 pair drying on top rack (if needed), otherwise packed. Ultralite trips, its 1 extra pair.
