I bought a couple of pairs of very light underwear from Uniqlo last year. I know it seems a bit ridiculous but rolled up, two pairs of them take up well under a quarter of the space of a pair of cotton boxers and they dry overnight if you wash them out in the sink at the end of the day. It's the little things like this that can gradually get the weight and bulk for touring down. I use Vaseline with aloe vera instead of Chamois cream and it's fine as a lip balm as well (no double dipping!), Maybe not ideal for really to end shorts, but I just use basic dhb shorts, so am not really worried on that score.
