I'm digging your motogadget gauge. The helmet, not quite as much.

Gracias. 

It's the still-black parts of the helmet that are buggin' ya, right?   ;D

If i'm out on a ride and the bike is in sight the helmet stays on the ground, on bike nights i take it w/ me.

I always take mine with me. At work I have a cubbyhole for it.
In SF you never know what the weather is going to do next. Or rather you never know in what form water will soak your hat. Usually fog, occasionally, mist and fog, sometimes rain, almost always really damp sea breeze, and it's not unheard of crackhead pee.
If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room

Yeppers!



My wife is disabled, so if I make reservations in advance, I make sure I have an outside, ground-level , handicapped room. Sometimes they have larger entrance doors and more interoir room. To get the  bikes into the room in the picture above, we had to walk them down a little corridor to the room's door.

this wouldn't happen to be an odd little hotel in Elkins, WV that was formerly a hospital, would it? I ask because of the odd window into the HALLWAY... Our rooms looked identical to this...

I keep a 5 foot bicycle cable lock in my jacket pocket to lock the helmet and jacket to the bike [drink]

Of course I've been guilty of drunkenly tossing it on the floor or leaving it on the night stand but thats never a pleasant sight in the morning. For a while I used to flush it but I heard that can clog your toilet so now it goes right in the trash.  ;D

We were playing around in the mountains of northern Georgia and it was getting late during leaf-looker season. We wound up finding a room at this hotel in Gainesville, GA. The window in that picture barely looks out to a central atrium, but the room was pretty close to being in a corridor of the hotel.

Well after last nights trip to the shops, I've discovered a new place to leave my helmet....in the butchers....for 2 hours.

So lucky the people there know me and kindly left my helmet with the bookies next door for me to collect when I came back in a blind panic!
