    I had a horse get killed running down a road. (She was loaned out, I was a teenager, it was the first horse I bought all by myself, a friend asked to borrow her, I said ok, if she herself rode the horse and let the friend ride her horse, but she didn't, and my horse was green broke, and the friend fell off, no one ever covered the replacement cost, didn't get another horse for quite a while...)

    An ankle Road ID would probably fit on a horse's pastern...

    My Road ID has name, allergies, organ donor, BF's number, sister (MD's) number, city, health insurance company, blood type (though I am told this doesn't matter, they type, of course, before giving blood) and I am not sure if I put my SS# on it or not.

    I got the wrist ID this spring (Denise convinced me). I do have drug allergies and asthma, so i thought that was important to note. I also have my husband's and son's cell numbers on there, because they are always on. But, I do still carry my wallet (it's very tiny, fits in a jersey pocket) with my insurance card and all of my other stuff, and my cell phone. I've been going on larger group rides this summer and I notice that no one else has one. I have had a few people ask me about it. Some of these people ride with NOTHING that has ID and they have been riding for years. Just stupid....

    I'm not too sure about putting the ID on the horses pastern, there's an awful lot of action down there.

    An ID on the bridle, though....
    Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

    I ID the saddle. A loose horse is likely to break or slip out of a bridle.
