Lol brain bucket ive never heard that one before

I thought of some other ones
-When you leave your bike for class/work lock your helmet with the top facing up and close all the vents and visor tightly so it doesn't get rain in it ... i had soggy helmet once it blew and took forever to dry back out

-Learn how to flip your bike around on the kickstand, I got stuck a couple times where people at usf/hcc parked so many bikes at angles behind me I could barely back out but i flipped it around and was able to steer out easier

-If you don't have a waterproof backpack and its raining you can use trash bags, shopping bags, etc to wrap your laptop in so it wont get wet

-If you have to leave your backpack use the helmet lock and put it through the zipper puller holes and leave it hanging on top the seat, it might not be the most effective but some people will try to steal your shit, see it wont unzip and give up

-If your staying at someone's apartment for the night take your lock with you and lock it around the rear pegs or subframe to transport it or around your neck if you feel like carrying that much weight and then lock your bike to their car or something like a carport/staircase, I don't do this all the time but some apartment complexes I can barely sleep unless I do it
+1 on the helmet, but hahaha, you've never ridden a cruiser if you're talking about flipping bikes on kickstands. You're pretty much fucked with one of these pigs if you get caught where you can't back out due to a hill or obstructions or something and can't go forward.
