Helmet Etiquette
#12
I usually just lock mine to the bike. I very rarely use my bike for anything other than recreation though so extended trips arent frequent. If I ride it to work ill take it with me if I have a clean place to put it (construction electrician) but if I can park the bike away somewhere on the job site I don't mind leaving the helmet out. I have a habit of wearing it into gas stations though, that gets me weird looks and sometimes nervous cashiers.

Haha, I stopped in a parking lot once to put on my mask/neck warmer on over the winter. As soon as I went to put my mask on I realized I had pulled into a bank, people were definitely looking at me like I was crazy then.

Going to dinner on my f4i, I locked it on the bike. Never worried about my lid cause I usually parked my bike where I could see it while inside (fast food), on the sidewalk very close to the door (Chili's, Longhorn) or valet parked (upscale dining).
Yes, I valet my bike. Pay the fee and park it myself right next to the high end cars they leave upfront

Keep it with me at all times. I picked up the Shoei RF1100 matte black...pretty penny for the helmet and tinted visor. It goes where I go. Last year I went on a bmx ride and some little punk tried to steal my brothers bmx bike from me while I was getting a drink inside a gasstation. It was leaning up against the window and the place was packed that kids face met pavement hard (he was fat and tried to ride away from me...I am in shape and played varsity hockey and lacrosse) never seen someone face slide like that on pavement haha...anyways, I dont trust anyone.
