A bloke I know had a bit of a scare recently - a person of his acquaintance went missing at about the same time as a woman of similar description was killed in a cycling accident. The woman had no ID. Fortunately it wasn't Comm's friend, but it did make me think of all the unidentified joggers found collapsed by the side of the road - quite often in Sydney for some reason, terribly dangerous place I gather. I wondered how the Spousal Unit would find out if I had a bad stack on my bike or was in an accident while running. So I bought this.
It's red so it goes faster
It's loaded with velcro and reflective stuff, has my name and J's contact details, and has been clinically proven to be as comfy as billy-o to perspire in. For about A$30 I can run and cycle hither and yon, secure in the knowledge that in the event of a misfortune befalling me my loved ones will rally to my side quicksticks. You should get one too. People care what happens to you! The link is here.More anon, voyagers

I've got a pink one, and I bought hubby a yellow one. He doesn't like wearing it - says I'm paranoid. I'd like to think I'm prepared. Plus it's not a bad fashion accessory....
I write my name in my underware.
I got a black one. I've had it for a while and I don't leave home without it, even for races.
I'm going to get one! Probably for the ankle. And one for Husband too. I just need to make a few decisions about what to put on it...
I can't be bothered signing in, but it's me, crankybee saying that I have my old expired driver's licence with hole punched in it, with the front door key on it for weight, and to you know, get back in the house n shit.
Twas free.
Although I usually stuff it down the front of my knickers (not to crotch level or anything) so if I end up at RNS it may be weeks before it's duscovered if I have the misfortune to be admitted there.
Sydney aint so scary. Yer wuss!
What a great idea. I have just ordered a pink one. I carry my driver's licence when I'm out running, but with this I was able to add that I'm allergic to penicillin. Thanks for the link.
Cool, I want one too!
I love mine, promised Wonderful Husband I'd never go training without it. And the bonus is the ankle model also holds a timing chip! : D
I just now saw this. I bought the ankle strap on the off chance that it would hold a timing chip - and it does! Yay!
