Spoke cards were originally laminated cards inserted in the spokes to identify participants in Alleycat races. Because these races are informal and inherently dangerous they are not really legal. These cards were placed in the spokes of the bicycle, and as a result, less obvious than say numbers on the racers backs which meant attracting less attention.
