How do you dispose of your old helmet???

[cindymay]

Have only ever got rid of one helmet - on the second one and expect it to last a while. I have been told you should replace them every few years but I don't see why they shouldn't last for ages.

I asked and was given a helmet recentley as I damaged a viser and hinge and needed a part. This this time I have ripped out the lining and planted some daises in it....looks good in the middle of the garden lol.

Thanks goodness for that!!!!! It would be much better growing plants than f.....ng your head!!!!

1. Paint it black to cover the dents. (Fill really bad cracks with RTV first).
2. Use glue to make the lining stay in.
3. Put it on TradeMe described as "Immaculate, almost never used"
4. Spend money at pub.

if it's old and unsafe i give them to harley and honda riders or perhaps even scooter riders

i also sell well oiled brake pads to the same people on trademe

someone told me i should grow plants in them but i think cannabis needs a bigger pot (expert advice anyone?)

last helmet which was old, got an attacking with an axe, to make sure no one was going to ever use it again.

Ride to a soccer trip tournament.

While you are not there, some pissed team mates put your wifes helmet on and use it for kicking and door slamming practice.

Donate helmet to the team (after they pay for a new one)

i can so picture that happening.

The alternative: invite friends with toddlers around who think it's all cute that their little poo-machine picks up helmet and drops on concrete.

You could always consider donating it to St Johns for training purposes. Last thing you need in a spill is some untrained doofus straining to get your lid off.

My head is too big for the Mrs.

So I just turn them upside down and use them as pot plant holders.

Head too big for the missus?

Thats not what she said.

Smashed the last one with a sledge hammer. Was really fun and took a few swings as well before I crushed it with my enormous strength!

So would that be a bigger pot pot?

[Zuki Bandit]

I would throw it out.

Yeah I didn't think before I typed! I could have said "helmet" but I am sure someone would have found that just as amusing.
