Seriously though, I can see where they could come in handy. You can use your rag to wipe snot, sweat, and even your butt, in a pinch.
I stand corrected....I am going to get some of those rags. I see some practical usefulness here. This is a good thread. It's sure beats using your socks in a pinch lol!
my poor husband...
lesson learned: never go to the bathroom in a ghetto gas station. If you do, bring your own TP
....correction: a ghetto bathroom in CHICAGO lol. |

| Doc, you really ought to try before you judge. Hubby is the one that got me to wear a neckerchief in the extreme cold. Somehow it keeps the cold from getting under your clothes. I swear it helps! Back when I used to ride in all kinds of weather, a neckerchief was definitely a plus in the extreme cold, especially when the wind is blowing. Then you can pull it up over your nose and face "outlaw style" and keep your face from freezing....also helps warm the air a little before you draw it in to your lungs.
Maybe calling it a neckerchief instead of a wild rag would make it more acceptable? Doesn't LRQHS live down south? No wonder she doesn't see the practicality of a wild rag! And as a cowboy fashion statement.

Up here we call it a scarf or neckerchief. In Scotland, if you wear a skirt, it's called a kilt. Up here it's called a skirt. No biggie. I'm just not into skirts and skarves. "Up here" straight west of you a couple hours they are called rags. I'm going to get you a pink paisley rag to tie around your 17" neck.  Over here, we use "rags" to mop up dog poop on the floor. Girls often call a tampon a "rag".
If someone is wearing an ugly garment, it's sometimes called a "rag". A bad newspaper, such as the Minneapolis Tribune is uniformly referred to as a "rag". Even a bad baseball team is referred to as "rag" tag. I don't want any of these things on my neck. I can see men from Texas needing something to keep their pencil necks warm....after all, it does get bitter cold down there, especially if you are a sissy. On the rare occasion a Texan winds up here in the winter, they usually need lots of kleenex to go along with their cute rags because the cold makes them cry.
You DID have to remind me of this, didn't you???!!!! When I was in Texas last summer I rode one horse for about an hour and was asked to ride another. I started to whine and moan and looked for excuses like "it's because of my thyroid."

No. I was being serious about you trying it, not being uptight. You live in really cold country (my sister used to live in Fargo, I've heard all about it). You just might find it another way to conserve body heat while riding in the arctic cold. However, with a 17" neck you might have to go with one of those silk wild rags as they run bigger than the cotton handkerchief/neckerchiefs we make do with. The silk ones just seem to make me colder! 
Now continue with the humor. |

Sweetheart, I can assure you that when it's -50 degrees with the wind chill, no cute little fashionable scarf will help....not when my pis$ freezes when it's still inside my bladder. |

Man, if you are a MUCH bigger man than me! I thought that I was being tough riding when it was zero before windchill!!
These days I have become a fair weather rider.... It's too cold, it's too hot, it's too windy, it's too humid, it's too buggy.....sigh.....
It sucks to get old! |

No, TX, try a down comforter! I look like Winter Fritz, if you happen to be a history buff and know about Stalingrad.
Seriously, though, those flimsy little scarves would be cute and nice for about a minute.....until my snot and drool freezes them into a solid sheet that flaps up and down against my lips like a frozen quirt made out of barbed wire. When I peel something like that off my frozen face, half my nose and my upper lip comes off with it. |
