Certainly do wear helmets - but I wouldn't use a helmet lock even if it was
fitted.  You have a good chance of returning to your bike one day and
finding a small D-ring locked to your bike, but the helmet gone - thieves
just cut the strap.  I use a bicycle lock through the helmet face opening
and lock it round the top rack.
