Default Helmet Locks

Ok so I just got a job last week and It's about 15 miles from were i live. So i ride my bike to work and the manager's number one rule is "Dont bring anything personal into the restaurant, cause he dosent wanted stolen" so that means that I can bring inn my walet or cell let alone my jacket and helmet, well anyways i brought it up last time bout if i can bring my gear inside and he said "NO" to make friends and put my gear in their car...well i havent gotten conftable with the ppl at work i was wondering if there's anything that can lock my helmet to my bike? Or how do you lock it? i seen bikes with them but not mine, 04 RR...well tomorrow im just gonna take it and take the bike cover, so when i put the helmet on the helmet wire and cover it with the bike cover i wont be as paranoid as last time...so what do ya'll think? any a$$hole bosses? and i cant even take my jacket inside, so i put it in the backpack and have to leave it outside

Dude, they have to let you Take the jacket Tecnically it's your' clothes, the. helmet you can safely leave on the bike with the steel Cable anything else (speciallya backpack) that you leave on the bike is as good as gone.

wow that sucks! i agree w/ you and wouldnt trust leaving it in somone elses vehical, and i'd be nervous of leaving it all out in the open aswell. and likeoreo said, he has to let you bring in you're bag and jacket, ATLEAST you're jacket! so i assume when its raining outside you had BETTER remove you're raincoat and leave that umbrella outside, damn sure better not track any water inside so leave those boots outside too, lol. j/p man, i think its lame you cant take those items in. when i used to work in resteaunts, they'd always have "back sidestands" ands stuff like that where employees can keep personal things.

So wait, you're supposed to make friends with people, then leave it in their car. Meanwhile, they're such thieves that once you get inside all bets are off and you can't trust them? Haha, retarded...

Don't worry about it. My girlfriend is a server and they told her the same thing when she started. It lasted about a week.

This looks interesting
Don't have one, but looks like it could do the trick for ya, if someone really wants your helmet they could obviously still get to it, but it looks a lot safer then using the under-the-seat clips.

I always take my gear in to work with me. People ****ed with my **** once. (Hide my 500 dollar coat). 4 phone calls threating lives to find the damn thing. Ya don't know why i would be pissed when ya threw my white leather jacket on top of a dusty cabinet. No body ****s with my **** anymore.

I would use the cable and pack your coat in. If the boss bitches tell em you take full resoneability for your stuff. Which basicly clears him of fault.
