ADV Bum 205 Posted February 29, 2016 After the great First Aid class we had the other night, I wanted to try and help/ promote people being prepared. I searched for a local company but could not find one. I found what looks to be a good supplier and after talking to them, they know who we are and had ridden with us. I will post the coupon code when it is set up. www.rescue-essentials.com Hi Mike: Here’s my contact info. I’ll put together a coupon code for your members to use when checking out. Also let them know that everything we ship is done for a flat rate of $4.99 shipping regardless of order size. This way they don’t order 15 dollars of stuff and pay 15 dollars in shipping. Looking forward to working with your members.

Spyder 2 Posted March 1, 2016 For those of us who could not attend the FA class; is there a current list of items recommended to carry? I usually have a the basic Adventure Medical Aid kit like this with me: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/118928/adventure-medical-kits-sportsman-whitetail-1-4-person-first-aid-kit But, it is like everything else. You can just go nuts on the stuff..... From ten bucks to kits costing hundreds of dollars. http://www.midwayusa.com/s?targetLocation=%2F_%2FN-20174%2B4294965635%3FNp%3D2%26Nr%3DAND%2528p_visible%253A1%252Ccustomertypeid%253A1%2529%26Nrpp%3D24%26Ns%3Dp_metric_sales_velocity%257C1%26Ntpc%3D1%26Ntpr%3D1 Sometimes it's good to start small and add something each time you go shoppin'. S PS Also a good idea is once you make a kit is to inventory it on a 3 x 5 card in a sandwich bag. And check it quickly before you ride. Nothing worse than "I have that!" and not having said item in the kit because you forgot you used it 3 rides ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ADV Bum 205 Posted March 1, 2016 For those of us who could not attend the FA class; is there a current list of items recommended to carry? We did not develop a list. There were some favorite items like the Isreali bandage, sam splint, and quik clot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted March 1, 2016 BTW: A SAM splint needs a wrap of some sort- kerlix or self-adhesive roll bandage. And usually a fair amount of it- not just to support the body part needing splinting, but to immobilize the entire setup as well. Yes, one can use gaffer tape- but what a mess.
