Perfect gift for the runner, cyclist, triathlete, or active person on your gift list

Road ID is the perfect gift and training partner for the runner, cyclist, triathlete, or active person on your gift list. If you can't speak for yourself, your Road ID will. If you don't know exactly which Road ID to purchase, just order a Road ID Gift Card or an online eCard.

Road ID: It's not just a piece of gear - it's peace of mind.

Kim and I both have Road ID bracelets and it really does give me peace of mind when Kim is out for a run or when I'm out for a ride on my bike. It's nice to know that if something happens to me, people will know who I am and how to contact family and friends. We even used our Road Ids for our kids a few times this summer when we were out at busy locations, such as Yankee Stadium!

If you don't think it can happen to you, checkout the testimonials. It's the best $20 you could spend this holiday season.

Child Safety Tattoos

As you recall, we took our two boys, Connor and Griffin (5 and 3) to Yankee Stadium this summer. Anytime we go out to crowded event, I almost immediately start to worry. What if one of the boys wanders off? What if, what if, what if? We work with Connor to know our names, phone number & address and in an emergency I'm sure he could remember enough to tell a policeman who he was, but I'm not confident enough to not have a backup plan. With our visit to Yankee Stadium, Kim and I put our www.RoadID.com bracelets on the boys. Good idea, but there little ankles are not big enough for a www.RoadID.com to fit comfortably. Kim emailed www.RoadID.com to let them know about this market and they indicated they're working on it, but I haven't seen anything on their site yet. Which leads me to this weekend's find.

I was doing some recreational surfing and stumbled onto the Child Safety Tattoos from SafetyTat, which is exactly what we could have used this summer, as well as other occassions where it's possible that the boys could get separated from us. They've got "If lost call...", "I have allergies...", "I have autism..." and others that allow parents to mark (for lack of a better term) their children in the event of separation or other where you can't be with your children. The great thing is that Connor and Griffin love Tattoos, so getting them to wear one won't be a problem and they've got cool designs such as Dinosaurs and Dogs, two favorites at my house. In addition to the pre-printed tattoos, you can also purchase a basic tattoo that you can you write on with the special tattoo marking pen. This seems like a nice option when the children are out with Mom or Dad, but not both.

In summary, I think this is a brilliant idea, why didn't I think of this? I can see these coming in handy at the next marathon, triathlon, concert, or amusement park visit. A nice piece of mind in the event that the unthinkable occurs and we're separated from Connor and/or Griffin.

Visit Safety Tat and checkout their products today!

Naked runners face registering as sex offenders

Check out this story from the Peoples Republic of Boulder.

I've been living in Boulder County all the way up in Longmont (~15 NE of Boulder) for 8+ years and this is the first year that I can recall hearing about this event. Apparently it's quite a party where people gather to run naked with only a carved pumpkin on their head. Sounds like relatively innocent fun to me, particular if done after hours, ie after family time, however it looks like the Boulder Police cracked (ha) down on the event this year citing 12 of the streakers for indecent exposure. Ok, it's not legal, here's a ticket right? Nope, if found guilty of indecent exposure, they'll be forced to register as sexual predators, which can have a significant impact on one's life. Seems a bit over the top to me and let's hope that cooler pumpkin heads prevail and it's either dismissed or lowered to public indecency, which doesn't carry the heavy consequences, but sounds worse! I wonder why they weren't charged with public indecency anyway?

PG slide show is here.
