..... wash your gloves?
Never
When they either stink or are stiff because of tried snot.
After every ride ..I also wash my helmet fairly regularly too 😉
They get chucked in the washer with the other stuff after every ride.
chuck em in the bathwater when I have the yearly bath
When they're dirty.
Never. To be fair the snot is getting a bit crispy now...........
One or two rides per wash.
Some dirty beggars round here.
When my hands smell funny when I take them off
(with the neoprene ones, this means pretty much every ride, they ferment pretty damn fast)
Every ride. Why wouldn’t you?
Never, why would you?
As above, when they start making my hands smell funny 😎
When they have made there own way to the washing machine
At least once every couple of rides.
Varies depending on mud, snot or sweat uptake. No point starting a ride with your gloves at capacity already.
One or two washes per ride.
I’ve got a bit of a thing for gloves so I’ve got about 15 pairs. I rotate through them fairly regularly so they don’t tend to need washing that often.
If I whistle, tap my knees playfully and say "come here boys" and they gambol over wagging an encouraging empty thumb, then it's time for a go in the laundry
Every ride. Why wouldn’t you?
cos I ride twice a day 5 days a week and only average 51 miles a week. not worth it.
Never, wear a brand new pair every ride & discard after
After every ride.
Why do you need to know?
In the washer after every ride with the other kit; they last longer, don't smell and are nicer to my hands. Similarly I never wear the same trainers two days running now and that has stopped smells there too.
When they get strong enough to take control of the bars themselves
When they look/smell really nasty, not many times a year. I’m not a sweaty b........ though 😅
If they stick to the wall, it is time...
with the neoprene ones, this means pretty much every ride, they ferment pretty damn fast)
ahh so it’s not just me then, they do work well but smell bad quick.
