I usually take it into the store with me but if I go somewhere on one of my bikes without locking storage, I use a bike cable lock through the arm of my jacket and through the chin of the helmet with the jacket covering the helmet to help make sure it is still there when I come back.
That's a good idea - keeps all the usual biking clutter with the bike so that you left unincumbered for your trip to the shops or work.

So far I wear my extra heavy textile jacket with me and carry the helmet which is hard to hold unless you thread your arm through the face hole which renders you one armed really.

Of course, I should just put it under the seat or the back box, both of which can hold the jacket and helmet but I get caught up in the rush of life - silly but true.
I have a disc lock and huge chain but I ahrdly ever open up the seat and get them out to put them on. :x

There are not for me - rather have a normal helmet, but I've seen someone riding with one. With the obscured view probably not legal in the UK (even though it's an HJC/Nolan helmet underneath).

I just won a $500.00 Gift certificate from Jafurm.com, so I bought a Shoei Neotec. WOW what a nice helmet. But the fit in the cheek area is way too tight. I know it will loosen up in time, but I just can't stand it. I have ordered the 31MM Cheek pads at $50.00

I would not have spent this kind of money on a Helmet, but with $500.00 off, GREAT DEAL!

I've installed the new 31mm Cheek pads and now the helmet fits perfect. It's a shame that Shoei does not make this the default cheek pad, but I guess they want the extra $50.00
