Here are some site to obtain medical "dog tags" and medical wrist bands to consider: Dog Tags: Universal Medical Data: universalmedicaldata.com/product-category/dog-tags-and-pendants-2/ American Medical: www.americanmedical-id.com/engraved-usb-dogtag.html?promo=Google_Ad&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5pvv7eKy-AIVGgaICR09SwR4EAQYBCABEgKoV_D_BwE Wrist Bands: Road ID: www.roadid.com/pages/choose-your-wrist-style Universal Medical Data: universalmedicaldata.com/product/black-sport-medical-alert-id-bracelets/

I've used Road ID for years. Glad to hear you gave them a good review.

It's come in handy for me several times over the past 20 years. Also visit our RU-vid home site at: ru-vid.com Regards and safe cycling, Tony

Good info Tony. I had a spill onto my shoulder last year: first one in many years, but a reminder about the risks that go with the many benefits of cycling. Luckily no permanent injuries. I didn’t realize you are/were a physician. Thanks!

I was an ER physician for a number of years then went on to be boarded in hematology and pathology at Columbia University Medical Center and Hartford Hospital. Bicycling and bike mechanics has always been my escape and I'm trying to share what I have learned over the years. I do my best to keep it simple and to the point. Regards and safe cycling, Tony

Right now I just keep a piece of paper in my wallet with my meds and dosages. But I'm going to order the dog tags. Thanks! Very helpful video.

As you can tell from the video, I too love my RoadID. It has come to my aid twice in the many years of cycling. Keeping it on, even when off the bike, is a good idea and viewers should take note of this suggestion. Regards and may all your cycling adventures be safe and enjoyable, Tony

I liked the Road ID wrist band but it didn't hold up well. After a year, most of the information was worn off and no longer legible. I'm going back to a chain. If I'm unconscious after an accident, I'm certain my jersey's coming off and the dog tag will be seen. I think a wrist band would end up lower in the survey and may be mistaken for something like a LiveStrong band.

My Road ID has lasted for many years and the information is still legible. Do you wear yours all the time? Have you work with any chemicals, spays, degreasers or detergents that may may have degraded the Road ID info? As far as a wrist band being confused with a band supporting a certain cause, that is a problem and requires one to make sure that the band has the "star of life" and / or the medical caduceus clearly visible. This holds true for any dog tags. As to which is better, I think it's a toss up (provided both remain legible). Ran across one medical "dog tag" ID which said: "Do not get wet."

I always ride with others who can help out if I have a crash.

That's great. But if taken to the ER, we'd really like to know such things as age, underlying conditions, allergies, etc. You're friends may not know these facts or be allowed into the treatment room. That's why and emergency ID is so important.

I make my own Emergency ID. I print out the details on a business card size piece of paper and plasticize them. Cheaper than buying a professionally made idea. I keep it secured on my person.

The reason I prefer a wrist emergency bracelet or dog tags is that they are less likely to be separated from the individual or put aside when being attended by emergency personnel at the scene or during transport. Working years as an emergency room physician, wallets are often set aside and clothing removed to allow examination and urgent treatment. However, dog tags or emergency bracelets are usually kept with the injured and information quickly conveyed to physicans and other team members.

@@tony10speed An emergency ID bracelet seems like a good option. I don't wear things around my neck. If someone attacks you, it could be used against you. Where I live, we have a disproportiate number of stranger (random) attacks. The dog tags aren't particularly comfortable either. A wrist bracelet is likely to be more comfy. The emergency ID is interesting to me because I spend a lot of time alone doing various hobbies.

Ironic timing for me: 8 days ago I had my first-ever road bike crash, solo riding. For some reason, I was not wearing my Road ID bracelet (I forget that maybe one ride a year), but I was conscious (though I have no memory of the accident or aftermath until much later in the hospital). I've got my first two broken ribs: do not recommend.

One bad accident in my long cycling career when I broke 7 ribs. No fun at all. But I was back on my exercise bike 2 months later and out on the road several months after that. Luckily I had my RoadID which was crucial. Regards and safe cycling, Tony

Wont you see it's a medical id even without the medical symbol?

Maybe, but for a few dollars, why chance it.

IDs on either the inside or outside of your bike helmet are probably not the best if the helmet is often removed in an accident.

Totally agree, at least in my experience. Thanks for the comment and safe cycling, Tony
