    That is the real name of it. Also sometimes spelled 'durag'.

    Just an idea...I would buy one!

    They already exist, at least down here in Australia There are several different brands available through camping stores. I would guess there would be something similar in the US.

    idea

    Hey there,

    Matagi i'm not sure what you use but i find buff ok. Dunno how popular they are overseas but they're fine until it gets to 25c+..then i overheat. They do keep the bugs out of my mouth though!

    Nothing like a bug snack on the way home from a nice bike ride...

    Crazycanuck, I saw them in Paddy Pallin about a month ago, there were a couple of different brands, but I can't remember any of the names. I was basically just scouting out insect protection for the Great Victorian Bike Ride at the end of this year.
