That's nasty. I'm impressed you got 5 years out of some gloves, though.
In the Summer, mine start to stink because I often use them to wipe sweat off
my face, or they're dirty from grease or grime from leaving my gloves on to do
something. Or tubeless sealant from a tire change with gloves on. Etc… In the
FallWinterSpring (and sometimes Summer) when it rains, they often get muddy. I
wouldn't say I always wash them that frequently, but I'm not shy about
chucking them in the wash with other bike stuff.
I usually judge how good my last week/two weeks have been based on how much
bike clothing there is to wash compared to street clothing. If it's 50/50 or
more in favour of jerseys and shammy, life's good.
