...assuming you wear a pair of cycling shorts underneath that is.

I'll go first - roughly every 2-3 days, depending on how much sweat or rain/road mush gets onto them.

After every use, even if ive only been out for half an hour and didn't get them sweaty or dirty. I just dont like putting on clothes that are 'dirty' even if they dont look dirty, makes my skin go all funny and i just cant feel comfortable!

When they look a little grubby. It will normally take a week to get that state. I think I washed them last weekend.

Every ride - just as easy to chuck them in with everything else (cycling kit) each evening on a 30c wash.

I use Ronhill Tracksters and I was them after every use!

The thought of putting them on when I know they're still all sweaty from the last ride makes me shudder ...

Once a week for me, usually saturday mornings. Fridays can be a little fruity if it's been a warm week.

It's nowhere near as bad as when people talk about putting on their shorts/bib shorts on for a whole week or more without washing. Don't be posting on here thanks. :ohmy:

At least for me, bibtights are an outer layer. Plus I tend not to sweat much as I'm quite careful about keeping my temperature right. Even then I wash roughly every second use, and more often if I think they need it.
