Just bought a new helmet today and it came with the usual free helmet bag.

I find I tend to use the things for about 2 weeks and then forget about it. What about you?

I didn't get one with mine! Scandalous!

My helmet and gloves live quite happily under the stairs and to be honest I think I'd stand more chance of dropping my lid while struggling to get it into a bag! Clumsy me Razz

I got one with my Xpeed helmet, and I used it for a few weeks when it was new, now I just can't be arsed using it so I clean the flies off my visor with it Very Happy.

Never had a helmet bag. Just carry it round in my hand. Despite that it is in fairly good condition except for the scrape where it rolled down the hill at Sherburn (lesson learnt Rolling Eyes ).

Sort of sometimes. Depends on how often I'm using the lid. If I'm backwards and forwards I don't bother, but if I'm not using the bike for a few days/weekend then I do.

It was an expensive purchase so I try to look after it.

I use mine every weekend so the kids don't play with my lid. Confused

Other than that.......I don't bother, the helmet just sits on the Dining room table until the next morning........... Very Happy

I always store my helmet in it's bag, and if I'm going shopping or something I will take the bag with me, or my A*s rucksack that it fits very nicely into and leave it somewhere - normally the handy friendly bike shop Very Happy (basically to resist batting scummy people out of my way with it)

Use mine to keep my clear visor in which goes around my waist so if nice local constable needs to educate me I can produce my legal version and therefore proving that I am a law abiding and sensible (sic) person.

I answered all the time, but I kind of cheated Evil or Very Mad

I got one with my helmet I got as a Christmas Pressie along with my CBT, but since I only used it for my CBT, it's still in it's bag!

I did try it on the other night though (then put it back in it's bag) along with my jacket and gloves 'cause I'm getting all excited now at the prospect of having a bike soon!!! Very Happy Very Happy

I'm sure that novelty will ware off though, 'cause I can be pretty untidy at times Shocked
