Default What's in a name?

I am usually pretty good with names. Due to the fact I seem to meet a NEW STR member (or five) on every ride, I can't keep track anymore.

Any ideas?
* An option in one's "public profile" to include your name? I like that idea!
* For seven days- ending posts with one's name.
* Sticker (of your name) on your top tube
* "Hello, I'm" name badges
* Do nothing at all. Steppie's choice!
* Simply trying to bond with those who are not considered regulars of the group!

Thank you for your time.
Opinions are
Insults (directed towards me) are expected.


* Bonus.... Names and Faces Thread Names + faces pics

That's why you can attach a photo to the contacts on your phone or crackberry

Exactly! It's the one aspect of the "dumbing down of society" that I subscribe to.

Thumbs up

I really agree with Allison.. as cheesy as it is, the old paper name tags with the name and STR handle on the jersey or helmet is probably the best way to associate the right names with the right faces... and Gene's Newbie Rides are the per
