A little off-topic but not entirely ...
I wash my cycling clothing in one of those generic sport washes with a little Simple Green mixed in. Works reasonably well and there's not really a lot of funky odors in the clothes before I wash them. It's a different story with my running and hiking/backpacking clothes. For some reason, those get pretty strong BO and nothing I am using today gets it ALL out.
But ... there was a product not too long ago I could find at REI called Win. It wasn't cheap - something like $7 or $8 for maybe a 48-ounce bottle (?) - but it WORKED and I didn't have to use it that often anyway. I mean, I could put the stinkiest thing I had in the washing machine with Win and it would come out with no, zero, nada odor. It went out of production for a while and I can't find it at REI any longer but they do sell it at Amazon although the price has gone up. Might be worth a try.
Amazon also sells something called Sports Suds and another product called Prowash Activewear Detergent. REI now sells Prowash. Does anyone have any experience with either of these two?
