The wool dries AT LEAST as fast as the synthetic stuff and DOES NOT STINK. Your office mates will thank you.
Hang it or drape it over something to dry.
I did 4 days of commuting (100 miles) in 100+ degree temps last week here in Houston in ONE wool jersey and I just put it back into my dresser drawer until i have more that need to be washed. It does not smell one bit, in fact it smells as fresh as anything else hanging in my closet. Just has white salt stains on it. lol
Totally agree, except I'm finding even my lightest wool to be a little much for these temps. Maybe that's the natural cutoff - if it's too hot to wear wool, it's too damn hot to ride!
I hand wash and dry lots of my clothes, so it's no biggie to wash the wool stuff after every ride. But I don't. There's just no point to it - the stuff does not stink.
