There's a couple of fuel stations around where I live that try telling you to take your helmet off. I always give them the burkha line, and for people wearing baseball caps, large shades, and scarves around their necks. Always het the same response, "speak to the manager".
I've even had the health and safety line thrown at me when asked to take my helmet off, to which I just laughed at the spotty oik behind the counter and told him that he wanted me to remove safety equipment for h&s reasons! He didn't think that one through properly did he?
It's an old debate, but one I tell the cashier that every biker uses fuel, and pretty much every biker has a car, quite a lot use vehicles at work.
Do you really want the fuel station being boycotted by bikers and all their other vehicles? Because they will lose quite a bit of custom!
