Do you believe in angels? While some people don't exactly believe in the white-robed, halo-wearing, harp-playing angels, they might believe in the idea of a guardian angel. A guardian angel is someone who watches over us and protects us from danger. Bikers, especially those who have been in a horrible crash and walked away uninjured, believe that they had a guardian angel watching out for them. But you don't want to get too far ahead of your angel when you're riding. That's what this Ride No Faster Than Your Guardian Angel Can Follow Patch reminds us. It's one of the Angel Patches found on The Cheap Place.
You don't necessarily have to be religious to believe in guardian angels, although some people like to think of it as just dumb, blind luck that they survived. Others believe that a deceased loved one watches out for them, and that's okay, too. This patch can be seen as having a second meaning, though. Many bikers love to ride at high, almost dangerous, speeds, speeds that are so fast that a crash will more often than not be fatal. That's certainly faster than any guardian angel could fly, so it can be taken as a warning not to drive unsafely.
This small patch measures four inches wide by 1.75 inches tall. The text is embroidered in white on a black background. A die cut black border goes all the way around the patch, and this border makes it very easy to sew the patch on to leather clothing. If you're putting it on anything other than leather, you can iron it on using the heat-activated backing. Either way, this patch is sure to look great on any article of clothing.
