It just occurred to me that Japanese washing machines only use cold water, which might prevent cycling clothing from getting sufficiently sanitized, hence my saddle sore issue.
Does anyone use any special precautions (e.g., a special sports wear detergent) to clean their bibs?
Or should I just give up and hand wash with 30 degree water like the instructions say?
Presumably Japanese detergent is formulated for low temperatures, but it's never going to be as effective as using warm water.
