That was the one thing that was hard to get used to as a missionary was having to wear a helmet while in a suit. Riding the bike wasn't that bad, but the helmet just bugged me. But it was the rules. We had to keep safe.
I think if the helmets had antlers, I would have WANTED to wear it. That would have been cool.
I have known plenty of sister missionaries (female missionaries) who had the disposition of a cantankerous moose though.

Here in Florida, it's the law. You wouldn't feel out of place here on your bike, except for the suits..........

“Riding the bike wasn’t that bad, but the helmet just bugged me.”

Neighbor of mine had a garage sale and he wanted to sell some old steel bed pans he had collected from his grandmother, who was a hospital nurse. He spray painted them white, punched holes in the sides for chin straps. Sold them as antique racing bicycle helmets.
