BIKER GEAR vs STORAGE

[Ragingrob]

At uni I lock my helmet to my bike, the rest goes in my locker

Hard to put a 5m sea kayak on the bike.

not if you put the kayak on vertically.

TRAILER ???

All wrong!

At work I just dump all my gear in the store room, easy as.

At the movies you just put it on the seat next to you.

Round the shopping centres, as others. Just wear it, makes you look 'ard. Everyone gets out of your way.

When I went to school it was a proper bitch cause we didn't have lockers so I used to just lock my helmet to the bike and carry my leather jacket round with me. Got some funny looks but i wasn't really all that bothered. Chicks used to dig it


And I just got home from the pouring rain.. had a great time going through ALL the REALLY deep puddles I'm absolutely soaked but I was gonna get wet one way or another so I decided to have some fun with it, till the exhaust flooded and the engine died and I spent 10 minutes or so trying to burn off the water..

buy draggin jeans. Then you just gotta wear a jacket (buy a nice one then its stylie too). So you just lug your lid around. which is fine.

I was told that I couldn't take my helmet into the movies. I stared the guy down and walked off and returned with it in my bag and got in. Anyone else get that?

I put my helmet bag in my pocket. When I get off I put the helmet in, shove the gloves inside my helmet and sling the lot over my shoulder. Jacket? Leave it on.

Thank you all for the replies, I have had good advices and somewhere in the middle nearly went off topic...lol but funny comments!!!

I guess there is a way around it, either taking it with you or finding a place to put it with a little bit of a risk. But where there is a will they is a way~ rite?!

The centre of gravity would be pretty high. I don't imagine it'll corner very well.

Yeah I have seen ppl do that, but guess u use like a bike lock to lock it to the bike?! Maybe something stronger?! Are u worried tat ur visor maybe crack or inside of the helmet being dirty?! (dust,wind,rain...etc)

There are idiots at uni who do abuse others property...
so far i havent encountered any but... i've seem some crazy things

otherwise get few lockers and put them seperatly...
I want to just wear the damn gear all day. too much hassle to be honest....

WTF?! some ppl hate bikers..huh?! I think coz they mite think u r videoing the movie like Cheap ass styles...

Sometimes I carry my gear with me and sometimes I use the helmet hooks under the seat to secure the helmet and then leave the gloves under the seat as well.
If I am going to the shopping centre or going to somewhere that I'll need to walk a bit then I don't wear full leathers and instead go the draggin jeans or normal jeans and leather jacket which I don't mind wearing everywhere or just carry it under my arm.
Some of my mates take a bike chain or security cord and put that through the jacket arms and lock that through the bike. Have even been known to thread a few jackets and helmets with the same cord to one bike.

I don't wear any gear, so that solves my problem.

Also, you'd need to add a couple of meters for our boats. Probably end up too far forward of the front axle to be legal.
