Safety Idea

[Bettyboo222]

I had a idea today, for years I have been mountain biking and what we always do is wear a rubber bracelet - like this What we do is write 'ICE - Contact Details' on the outside and write our names, emergency contact and any allergies on the inside of the band (the bit that is against the skin) I wear mine on my calf as I have ridiculously small hands and the bands fall off over them, other family members wear them on the tops of their arms.

But anyway, it occured to me today that I should tell people about this as an idea for those of you who hack alone, winter is the time when the most accidents happen so it is better to be safe than sorry. I recommend using a sharpie or a cd marker to write your name on rather than a biro, unless you want contact details printed on your wrist/clothes.

It is a brilliant idea, I work for local gov and it was suggested to our staff by the local police force two years ago, I have name tags on my bridle and saddle with my I.C.E. number on

I think that was where it started orginally as my mum is a member of the police force

Thats a good idea, Pound shops usually have the bands or sometimes they are on the side of tills as charitys sell them

And you just get a laundry pen/ fine permanent marker and write your details on them! Amazing, so simple too!
