    Get ready to ride...!

    So, as the season approaches I jus took a few minutes to review this post. Even if you've read this before, it's not a bad idea to have a look see before you head out!!!

    And thanks to the EMTs who have identified themselves to me on group rides I have led....

    ...never needed them but it's comforting to know they're there!

    Good post. On BoRn we are setting up an accident scene management class for the forum.

    Heres a condom. I figured since youre acting like a dick, you should dress like one too.

    Thanks for the post. Being a trained first responder and nurse its great having other people that can help at an accident scene and better the chances for surviving what could be a life threatening injury.

    Got my flipflops and shorts all ready for this year!

    In all seriousness, bringing a plug kit, first aid pack, etc - can be a huge thing if needed.
    Yet to need them but still....

    ALOT of new firefighters/EMT's are like that.

    Nothing like being 1st on scene and being pushed out of the way by three 20 somethings who think they are God's gift to EMS.
