Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I need a new ID wristband for when out running. My old one was a silicone strap from Road ID and held up well for over a decade but the clasp has given out.

I was well pleased with the Road ID but would prefer a UK supplier if possible. Anyone know of one?

Not a parkrunner? Or not a fan of their designs;
shop.parkrun.com

They are made by;
theidbandco.com

Who also sell non-parkrun style ID bands.
They describe themselves as a "family run business based in Northumberland in the United Kingdom"

I have similar to these. Not a wristband - but a little card on your laces. They've lasted me for many years.

Again, you can get them with parkrun barcodes if you wish.

The ID company does sell a wide range of wristbands, including non-silicone ones if you did want to try a different company/design.

(I'm not on commission honest! :) )

I need a new one, I like the looks of the id tag that slips onto the apple watch strap.

The broad silicone wrist band ordered. Bright pink. Particularly liked having 50 letters per line.

With name, year of birth, blood group, no known allergies. And if dead please pause my Garmin.

My new stretchy silicone ID wristband from the ID Band Co is with me and doing its job. Seems robust enough, time will tell.

But I am now being spammed on Faecesbook with RoadID ads. They obviously know I visited the site, even though I have a Firefox addon that is supposed to stop this kind of creepy tracking.

I guess it's the world we live in these days but still, it turns me against RoadID should I ever need another ID band.
