I HAVE to have a shower when I wake up. This is a given - it wakes me up, and I won't skimp on it!
Seeing as it's now 2300, and I'll be up again in about 7 hours, I can't be bothered to shower now and then again in the morning...
Wife is asleep, so she won't (immediately) mind the slight smell issue...
I'm not muddy, but I'm not 'fresh' either...

It's dilemmas like this I look down at my WWSTWD bangle....

Shower, you really don't want to get jock rot!

I used to go to bed after just washing the mud off, now I shower after every ride.

shower and sod it in the morning or both if you must but bed without a shower after a ride is unthinkable

could a nurse not give you a bed bath or does that only happen in movies 😉

You should be utterly ashamed of yourself. No excuse for poor personal hygiene. Jumping sweaty and unwashed into a clean bed is disgusting, it also shows a lack of respect for your partner because:

I can't be bothered to shower now and then again in the morning...

Get a grip and start to take personal hygiene more seriously. I dread to think what your house looks like. I bet you pee on the floor and just leave it. Yuk.

Take this as a good telling off, your mother would be proper ashamed.

Jesus. The muddy sweat from your body will get wiped all over the bed, it'll stink! Biking sweat smells different to sex sweat too.

Sweaty skin is sticky with salt, which attracts moisture and makes you stay damp. Then it rubs off onto the sheets, which slowly go yellow.

Have a shower.

@dickyboy. Actually it will, albeit only momentarily. That's why we have to have leap years, to keep everything in check due to people skimping on washing.

As you can smell (see what I did there) I just jumped straight into bed... Yeah, it's a bit minging, but don't worry, I'll bring forward the bi-annual bedding wash by a few weeks....

Regardless, shower this am was lovely as usual, the sun's out, so all's well with the world!

That's gross. How would you like it if a slightly glowing young lady jumped into your bed after a vigorous workout at the gym? Oh....hang on.
