Mark your calendars: The 2017 edition of Wear Your Helmet to Work Day will fall on August 18. What is it? Well, it’s a holiday we made up for showing off your motorsports pride. As the title of the day suggests, just wear your helmet to work—or show us whatever else you are doing on August 18 in your brain bucket.

Want to join in the fun? Just post a photo of yourself on our Facebook page going about your everyday business in your helmet. We’ll pick our five favorite submissions and send them GRM goodie bags.

Need some inspiration? Here are some of our favorite shots from last year.

Also, a super big shoutout to WFAA-TV anchor Marcus Moore for wearing his helmet (and HANS) at the news desk.

I suppose it's half the point, but 99% of my office would be so confused...

And there are only maybe 20 people, so there's that to be considered as well.

I'm off work today and flying... I don't think TSA would accept that as an excuse.

All I have is a welding helmet. Does that count?

Unless you also ride a motorcycle to work you will be doing a good impersonation of an idiot. It's also "Wear your Pikachu Butt Plug Tail to Work Day" so... have at it.
