Agatt

..and here I always thought it was supposed to be ATGATT..

Anyway...while riding someplace, I don't remember anymore where it was, I stopped for fuel, filled up my tank and walked inside to pay (the credit card didn't work) - all without taking my helmet off.
The attendant threw a fit. She said, I should not come inside again with my helmet on, because they were concerned about robbers trying to hide their identity

Been a problem in most places for a while now, ever since the first 7-11 robbery. Also, no hoodies, no face masks of any kind, all of which are problems when the weather is really cold. I just learned to always remove my helmet before I go inside anywhere.

I fool 'em and pay at the pump with my bank card. Heck with the rules...
unless you want to talk about fashion rules. I always thought it was funny, to see guys wandering about in stores with their helmets on.

Been there, done that in order to save time on an Iron Butt SS1000. No-one said anything but I do agree it feels wrong somehow.

Yeah, it feels weird, maybe that's why I like my flip-up. But 'comon your pulling cash out and HANDING IT TO HER, right? Money freaked her out? Baaadd capitalist servant...
 
I can't see it very well in that picture, but that almost looks like a bicycle helmet - like it has vent holes in the front above the visor. That would fit with escaping on a bicycle.
