Crash helmet covers, WTF!

[Onelastattempt]

No, not the soft bag you store your helmet in when not in use. I mean those bloody childish furry bunny heads with big floppy ears etc that so many bikers have taken to wearing recently. I had two people behind me today on "adventure" bikes both wearing them, I actually pulled in and let them past and a few cars so people wouldn't think I was with them.
If you are under 17, female, and ride a pink scooter with unicorn stickers on then you get a pass, otherwise f**k off.
If anyone on here wears one give yourself a slap and if any of your friends wear one give them a slap.
Yeah, I know I am just a miserable old git.

Million times more classy than "Polite" waistcoats

Calm down dear, their idea of fun isn't affecting you in the slightest.

It’s cringe.

It’s right on up there with that awful mini-craze of bikers getting off their bikes at traffic lights and doing silly little dances.

People are meant to fear biker gangs ffs! Not watch them do stupid dances with bunny heads on!

[CoolHands]

Most bikers are immature dheads - kind of explains it.

I have a Cookie Monster one that wear every year on the Easter Charity run for kids.

Makes them laugh and smile, I don’t care if people think I look like an idiot.

You’re welcome to come and try give me a slap…

For the love of god, please can everyone stop having fun. It is embarrassing

[black-k1]

I suppose that, while the weather is still not warm, it'll fill the- "rant requirement" until t-shirts, shorts and flip-flops!

If it keeps people enjoying motorbikes then more power to their furry ears!

I saw one yesterday, person gave me a wave as they went past and it made me smile. Wouldn't necessarily wear one myself, but if they want to and it brings a bit of joy (to most people) then good for them.

The only thing that deserves ridicule are those ridiculous leather vest/cuts.

The sort worn by the thousands of bikers who make up the highest value contributing group to the National Memorial Arboretum, for (one) example? Why do they deserve ridicule from you?

[RazerSauber]

Oh have a day off. It's other people amusing themselves and doing you no harm.

[CoreyDog]

Would I wear one? No

Would I wear anything with tassels or that made me look like a power ranger reject? No either, though the latter is mainly due to me being 40 with abit of a belly.

Does it offend me other people wear that stuff? Not at all.

Each to their own and as long as they are happy and having fun, sod all to do with me!

Meh. I've got an agv birdy lid and have been known to shout cacaw at kids who wave at me so I can't judge anyone.

Exactly, there is so much st in the world at that moment to get annoyed about rather than this. I wouldn’t be seen dead in one, but if others want to and are happy then that’s fine with me. I was watching an old chap on a motoring programme a few months ago who had recently purchased a Ferrari Dino replica/kit car. I wouldn’t drive it in a million years, but he was genuinely happy, which really is all that matters.

Well at least now when I see an adult biker wearing a furry bunny head that it is probably a pistonheader judging by the replies.
I did say in my original post that I am a miserable old git !
