#1 Unread post by VermilionX »

in anticipation of picking up girls.

the guy i rode w/ yesterday said he used to do it a lot.

his rule, he told me... "i'll give you a ride, then you give me a ride"

Heh, heh........ if Mrs. Stark caught me riding with another helmet to pick up girls, I'd be needing some extra protection for some other body parts!!! :laughing:

If I know in advance I'll be giving out a ride then I'll carry a spare lid, otherwise it's to much of a hassle.
As for using a bike to meet girls... seems to me that anyone who is interested in you because of your bike isn't going to stick around very long, which isn't what I'm looking for.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Im in the same boat as jstark.

If I carried around an extra helmet to pick up girls I would have to worry about the wrath of Mrs. Millheiser

I only carry my spare helmet if I know I'm going to be giving someone a ride, otherwise it takes up too much storage space that I can use for other stuff.

There's no room for an extra helmet, much less a passenger.
