I have only ridden a horse once and it became readily clear why cowboys wore chaps ... those animals are filthy and sweat all over you if you don't have protection.



You may not be trying to be argumentative, but you sure are not stopping to think.

Wear black - hides the dirt
Covering face with bandanna - Have you ever hit a bee at 60 MPH? Every little bit helps
Seedy bars - Fuck, they are a lot more fun than some club
Beards - Help as a cushion/buffer against rocks, hail, bugs a lot more than a bandanna
