STINK FACTOR
gear is expensive
when gear is used
gear gets worn
after some vigorous workouts gear can start to stink

the gear can be washed
but at the first healthy sweat that gear shows that it has a life of its own
the sweat is clean while the gear is dirty
the end result the rider carries the pungent odor that rubs off from the gear
this morning my gloves were the stinkiest item of all my gear

after removing all my gear, some mud covered, some clean, some pungent from the fresh sweat
once cleansing myself of STINK FACTOR from my odiforous gear with SPEED STICK and GOLD BOND I realized it was not enough
no time for a shower...just some soap to the hands...it may be time to retire some of this gear
