Hang em up on the garage wall.... Everyone has different opinions, I kinda dig having my old helmets some as far back as my JT ALS helmets I rode with as a kid in the 80s still around...

Have my daughters (28 & 21 now) 1st helmets riding as young kids hanging up also.

You could use them as ballistic impact experiments.

- I'm in Idaho which is helmet free state for those 18+ and thought about leaving old helmets in front of the "Welcome To Oregon" road sign on US-95 where helmets are required. 😂
