Title: First aid kit?
Post by: Mudder on October 27, 2020, 08:04:07 AM
Today is First Responders Day, and as a ex EMT and new member, I was curious how many members carry a small first aid kit?   If so, any recommendations or links to help others ride safe.  Possibly an item to add to an accessories list that may be overlooked.  Thanks all.   A updated smaller examples, the first one has eye wash.  Get one with a Triangle bandage, good for arm sling or bandage or splinting.

I carry some big bandaids and a few things in my seat bag on my road bike, that kit you linked to is huge for a cyclist to carry.  I have not set up anything yet on my Rover with just 60 miles so far.  I would think smaller, fit in a top tube bag or under seat.

Good point! Even a cyclist can carry a first aid kit, absolutely true. Especially ebike riders when the weight and size of the kit does not matter so much.

I got one smaller one with me on my motorbike, but never thought I could carry one on my ebike aswell. I will buy one for sure now.

Never know when you see someone who needs help. One important thing is to stop the bleeding, and that is what you can carry with your bicycle.
