They obviously have an advanced interface that detects whether you're a Real Cyclist or a hoi polloi poseur. You obviously failed the test Richard whereas I..... Tony ;-)

There is a missed opportunity to incorporate a spoke key into the edge of the card, and how about making the drillings different sizes of hexagonal spanner? -- Microsoft Sam speaks his mind: www.artybee.net/sam_speaks_his_mind.mp3

Surely that would defeat the objective of credit card touring. After all, a true credit card tourist would get an oik from the nearest LBS to come out and make any necessary adjustments to his bike. One could not get one's hands dirty. :~)

My credit card is already made of an advanced carbon composite very similar to those used for the brake levers of those supermarket full sus pretend MTBs. But think how much sexier it would look covered in carbon-look sticky black plastic as used on the frames of the same supermarket bike. http://www.snopes.com/business/bank/blackcard.asp http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/2069758.stm
