If one's derriere is up to it, padless cycling shorts have some virtue in their ability to dry quickly. I usually wash my one spare cycling shorts and bungie them to the rear inside out with the pad facing the Sun.
SOme years ago, I was touring in Colorado and a late season snow storm got me. I stopped at a roadside mom and pop restaurant. I feared my wet and snow encrusted corpse would be turned away. She immediately said, "you poor thing, lets get you to the fire. They got me wool blanket and the fire was awesome and IIRC, they fed me right there. Usually I am pretty timid going into a decent place when wet. WaWa or Sheetz or the such? No problemo.
