When you guys commute to work/school/anywhere, where do you keep your helmet? Do you carry it with you? Do you look it up on your bike? Also, how do you look your helmet up on your bike?

I almost never wear a helmet when biking for transportation.
>>
I keep it in the store. I don't wear a helmet on my bike for the same reason why I don't wear one when I'm walking.
>>
I carry it with me when I walk into a store. If I can fit it in my backpack or pannier it goes in there. On hot days I leave it at home. I often climb with it dangling from handlebars to keep my head dry and cool.

I don't wear a helmet for protecting my nogging while transporting. I wear it to avoid extra attention, and sometimes to shield eyes from sun/rain.
>>
I lock it with my bike, the lock goes easily through one of the helmet vents
>>
I never wear a helmet while riding for transport. If riding for transport then falls that don't land me under a cage aren't going to hurt me at 13-15mph.

>helmet related question
>HEY GUYS I DON'T WEAR A HELMET
Jeez, these people are on par with vegans

Why are head condom wearers so easily triggered?
>>
>>1056105
I just hang it on my handle bars. It's a cheap one, and most people hate them anyway, so I never worry about theft.
>>
>>1056105
Just hang it over the handle bars, I never lock it. Stealing a helmet would be like stealing a shoe someone has been sweating into it.
>>
I just thread the lock thru the straps

I doubt someone would steal my helmet which is just polystyrene anyway

Mostly I clip it around one of my backpack straps. If the place is safe i just leave it on seat or handlebars. Sometimes loop the lock trough vent hole or strap.

Mostly worry about it getting wet if it starts to rain or being vandalized. Depending on helmet it's unlikely for it being stolen.

I keep my helmet with me. If I'm only off my bike briefly, I keep the helmet on, otherwise I'll clip it to my backpack.
If you want to lock your helmet just put the lock through one of the straps.

Look, kid. I don't know who you are or what kind of riding you do, but I'm not one to back away from a challenge -- or from danger. You see those professional freeriders hucking backies off 30 foot cliffs on gravity rigs? Yeah, I'm one of those guys. Or the guys riding 100km/h in a pantheon only centimeters away from other riders, where the slightest mishap would send them flying onto the pavement -- or worse, off the cliff that the road is running alongside? Yeah, I'm one of those guys too. I'm a 3-time downhill world champion and a 5-time Tour De France winner. I also have the 3rd lowest time ever recorded in the Race Across America, the most difficult endurance sport event in world history. Then you little BMX punk kids and fixie hipster faggots come and tell me that I am afraid to take risks? No, fuck that and fuck you. I'm not afraid to take risks, I'm just not an idiot. I'm all for adventure and risk, but there is literally no reason to ride without a helmet or without brakes, ever, under any circumstances (aside from riding brakeless in a velodrome). I hope you get run over by a death cage and die, kiddo.

At my desk, of course
>>
>>1056105
I only wear a helmet when I'm biking for recreation.

That said, if I am wearing one for some reason and need to get off my bike, I just loop my U-Lock through it.
>>
If im biking to work, gloves go on helmet, helmet goes in pannier.

If im going to the store, helmet connects the wheel and frame. If some asshole is going to cut my lock steal my bike I cant stop them, but adding the extra step is funny enough for me to do it.

Maybe people with concussions are less volatile.

lucky bastards, I'm on a military base and probably pass 20+ people who would chew me out if I didn't have a head condom on daily
