These are similar to the Mountain Warehouse Isocool jobs often touted on these pages. Man made fibre, wick sweat and will dry overnight if rinsed out in a hotel sink/shower. Plain colours, black or green. Take 3 on a trip and it is all you need. I wear one in the evening and then on the bike the following day. Rinse in the shower and wear a clean one in the evening. Rinse and repeat. The third one is a spare just in case one has a dinner time spillage.

Wessie, I’m amazed at how many t-shirts & pants people take. One chap I know buys cheapo stuff and throws away as the time goes on his trip. A wash with whatever is in the hotel/B&B shower is so easy and is, as you say, dry next day. Good find.

I take enough for a change of socks, pants & riding shirt every day.....It going to be interesting when I go to spain for 2 weeks in September......thats a bit too much to carry..... I am hoping for a laudrette along the way same as they have in the US Hotels
I must say I have found these from Sports Direct to be good but this Aldi deal looks amazing....

the problem with that HJ shirt is that it is cotton so takes an age to dry compared to these sports tops made from polyester that drip dry.

I rinse out a shirt every evening in the en suite sink whether stopping one or more nights as it is dry by morning. I do a batch of pants and socks if staying more than one night as they take longer to dry out unless you have a very sunny balcony. 3 shirts for the trip plus 7 pairs socks/pants suffice for any length trip.

Yes, there are launderettes in Spain. Just put lavandería into google maps. Unlikely to find them in a hotel.
 
Launderettes are part of the cultural experience. I’m on the look out for my next one tomorrow in northern Macedonia 🤣
 
Two and a half week tour of Andalucia, Catalunya and the picos last year in May. Three Klim Teton tshirts rotated every day. 1 long sleeve Klim Teton t shirt. 1 Klim wind jacket (worn only in picos twice). Two pairs of shorts for the evenings. 3 All Birds merino t shirts for the evenings on rotation. 1 pair of light linen trousers for smarter evenings. x5 All Birds merino pants; wash and dry overnight. Pair of thin leather loafers for the evenings. Shame All Birds have gone tits up.

Given that merino pants will dry overnight after washing in the sink, why do you need five pairs? Two is actually enough - but I usually take a third pair just in case.

Seven tops is also more than I take for two months!
 
I’ve got some Rohan wicking t shirts and undies I bought when on sale . Dry easily overnight .
Tend to wear Kühl long or short sleeve shirts off the bike as they are VERY light, UPF factor 50 and look smart yet dry as quick as anything when washed.
These socks off Amazon are very comfy and dry much quicker than regular socks .

In case there’s stubborn skidders and I like to keep my options open! 😀
