Been giving this a lot of thought. Hooked up with one of my customers today who said he was out with a semi-new rider over the weekend. Long story short, rider went down in the middle of no where. They knew the guys name. Knew his cell number. Knew a little about what he did. Knew his riding skills. Knew 911. But that was about it.
As I ride with me new friends from the board and other fellow riders, I was thinking about buying me some dog tags with my wifes contact info as well as some personal health info (blood type, allergies, etc...).
Anyone have any thoughts or ideas on the subject? I joined my father-in-law and his Indian group couple weeks back and as group organizer... he asked everyone to show their card. I looked confused and he handed me a business card and pen. He told me to write down the name and number of the person to be contacted should some unforeseen event unfold. That's where I got the idea. He told me later it was a quick reminder to the group just how dangerous riding is and not to be stupid out there.
BTW - He did a visual inspection of each bike and handed out a tire pressure gauge for each member to check PSI before heading out. Gotta give the old man props.
