Monochrome Monday, A cool helmet and bikes to go with it
This is a post for Monochrome Monday hosted by @old-guy-photos A challenge I try to join as often as I can, the other challenges he hosts are Sepia Saturday and Tree Tuesday, all fun challenges and worth checking out.
This week I am sharing a cool Motorcycle Helmet I came across on a walk one day
And totally irrelevant to these shots I will say looking out the window this morning it is a monochrome Monday, I have been saying this Winter we have been lucky or unlucky depending on your perspective, that did change last night where we had a good fall of snow, glad I don't have to head out in it today

I am not normally a big fan of Skulls for art and such but I really liked the style of this helmet,
Now I do not like to just have one photo in a post, and I do not have another helmet shot that would go with this shot, so instead let me share you a couple of bikes

The helmet is on the bike at the back of these two, and they both look pretty cool motorcycles to me, not that I am an expert on Road bikes, the only bikes I have ever owned were motocross and trail bikes, I did a bit of racing when I was young and have the aches at pains now to remind me of the fun and crashes I had riding off road. but even with the injuries and ache snow, if I knew I would feel it now, I would still do it all over again.

Howdy there JJ! wow those are great looking bikes! But you mean people leave their helmets on the bikes unattended??
this one did, but its not something your normally see, it was locked onto the bike, but I am not sure how secure that would be
Howdy again JJ! I was just surprised to see that, it didn't look secure enough!
with such a nice helmet I know I would not leave it there myself
haha..no not at all and I know things have improved in the city as far as crime compared to years ago but I wouldn't leave anything to chance. Not even the bike! lol.
I've ridden on motor cycles before, but never driven one. I had a dream the other night that I was driving one and it was such a peaceful dream. Made me want to go out and buy a motorcycle. LOL.
Pretty sure the 2nd picture the bike on the right is the motor cycle my friend is looking to buy.
I think the last picture is my favorite of all, but I really like that helmets design as well.
I at times have the urge to buy a road bike but with all my experience being off ride and knowing how crazy I am at my age I would probably do myself an injury LOL
Thanks for your feedback
Haha that's exactly why my wife doesn't let me buy one as well. She keeps reminding me I have "responsibilities". I hate to hear those words, but know she's right.
Funnily enough my wife throws that word at me from time to time as well

That is a pretty cool helmet. It is nice when they have some airbrushing done like that to add a little flare and color(even though this is monochrome) to their look. Thanks for sharing.
Actually the helmet was mono, the mone edit is more on the background, but if I had a bike I could see myself with a helmet like that
