Kind o morbid and a bt off topic but when I was in the Army, I kept one dogtag on the chain around my neck and another in my boot laces. Just in case...

you can also have a dog tag made at most pet stores (yes, like what you pooch wears)
probably a bit cheaper than the ICE tags....and the EMT doesnt need to be able to read USB info

+1  Since I am often many states away from home, when I ride, I wear a dogtag I made at a pet store.  It has my name, DOB, allergies, and my sister's telephone number. 

Don't bother with blood type - this isn't like the old days where any pint'll do.  That, and they won't take your word for it anyway.

Is there a protocol in the EMS industry that trains medics to look for certain information on victims?

NO.  ICE is a fine idea, but EMS does not look.  We don't care either.  If you can talk, no need for putting the info anywhere.  If you are unconscience, airway, breathing and circulation take precedent to wasting time looking for useless info.  We don't need to know your blood type or who to call.  We would be busy trying to keep you alive or get you alive again.

At some point the hospital will need to know who you are.  A drivers license has that.  If a cell phone survives, someone may look at that at some point.

What about those of us that don't ride with a wallet on our person?  Mines in the tank bag since my leathers have no pockets.

I just found my tags about 2 weeks ago. I was thinking about putting one on my Duc key/chain but if I lost my keys..someone would have my SSN.

tank bags are a poor location.

They rarely stay with the bike

and

with all the debris it might not get found.

In pocketless leathers, your ID and and needed info on a card in a break-away lanyard around your neck would be a good location.

Avoid putting them in gloves and boots, they come off on impact sometimes.

Medic-alert tags are always a good idea.

Even more disturbing..

anyone have a note to loved one(s) in their bike/wallet..

as a just-in-case-sh*t-happens?





I thought this was a good but morbid idea and was going to post it up awhile back but never wanted to jinx anyone's ride.

How about this?
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."

No, but on the comments section of my organ donor card it says "Bon Apetit!"  [evil]
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...
