ffuturesThis morning I has several things to carry after I'd parked my bike, and it wasn't until ten or so that I realised that my crash helmet wasn't with my coat. So after a quick search to make sure I hadn't left it somewhere I sprinted down four flights and round the corner to my bike, parked on the street a couple of hundred yards away...
And amazingly it was still there, sitting on the seat where I'd left it. This strikes me as little short of amazing, since over the years I've lost (from this and earlier bikes) the BMW badge, a mirror, a clock, the road tax disk, and the plastic cover over the big bolts that hold everything together. All of that stuff was fairly firmly attached, the helmet was just sitting there.
This is undoubtedly the prelude to something horrible going wrong!
