The Stick

This Article is not about the "Stick"

When Riding, Running, Swimming or whatever your choice is of “healthy” punishment is, ever what happens if you take a crash, fall, have a run in with a motorist? Yeah, we really never think of that too much. We throw on our shoes, grab our iPod and we are out the door, cruising down the road without a care in the world just trying to make it back in time to watch the Simpsons.

Then it is all over, that crazy accident you thought would never happen. You are laying in the emergency room with no clue as to what is going on? Think you are lost and confused? Think about the nurses, doctors and others that administer your medicine. They have no ideas if you are allergic to anything, blood types, family members, nothing. When running, swimming, riding, hiking or whatever we do most of us do not carry ID with us, no wallets, purses, nothing. Road ID merges that gap between ID and nothing providing all the necessary information you can need on a small tag on your shoe, wrist, or a necklace.

I have found that with the Road ID I am never without identification. Road ID will answer all the question that a stranger, doctor or whomever might have about you. The Road ID can be worn on your shoe, ankle, wrist or as a necklace. It allows you to provide up to six lines of information to help those that may need to help you during an emergency. My Road ID are all pretty similar, It has my name, city and state, home and work phone numbers, and a few medical notes that are necessary for me.

Personally I have had my Road ID in my bike bag, on my shoe, and even a necklace but have never had to rely on it yet. But visit RoadID.com for some testimonials and you will want to order one today for yourself, the wife, and kids. After all I am sure you have a name tag on your dog …. Why not everyone else.

There is no reason that every runner shouldn’t have an ID when they run, and the Shoe ID is a great one. You can have more than one phone number, your address, your blood type… there is room for so much! It’s also very light and there is no flop (no bouncing up and down on your shoe while you run). You will not even know it is there, but the paramedics will. • Keeps You Safe • Tons Of Room For Information • Lightweight • Guaranteed • Water/Weather Proof
