First Aid Kits

[Ragnar406]

I did a search first but did not find anything - so call it growing up in Scouts or what not but I have not seen any comments on what type of First Aid people have / carry for their rides. I mean we often are miles away from a regular road or even cell service and accidents do happen.

Since I am involved in shooting competitions I have a blow out kit with me most of the time that contains at min:

• Tourniquet
• Pressure Bandage
• Gauze
• Tape
• Chest seals
• Scissors
• Quick Clot combat gauze

When riding I will take my blow out kit along with some basic supplies like:

• Band aids assorted
• Burn Cream
• Additional gauze
• Tweezers
• Tape
• Advil

I keep all of this is a orange water proof bag that is clipped on to my ROPs in the back bed - incase I need to instruct someone to retrieve for me

Thought I would get the conversation started as we can be a long way down a trail when something were to happen. - Also training - need to know how to use what you got - or Ride with a Dr.

What other items do you carry or should consider adding?

I have kits in my boats, just hadn't crossed my mind to throw one in the glove box.
Makes sense. I buy the ready made first aid 1-2-3 kits that come complete w/ rubber gloves.

Good call.

My Wife put one together and it fits in my sack with my other items. I can remove it from the box in my bed pretty quick... riding with Dimitri I have to be prepared.

My wife also put one together, mainly just the basics to stop bleeding if needed. Ours id stored in a w.p. plastic box under the folded down seat on the floor.

I carry an old fist aid kit I got from a surplus store. Filled it with new items of course holds enough to get the job done

My go bag is prepped similar.. along with a multitude of other items. I keep it in the truck or in a drybag in the back. If space doesn't allow I also have a smaller kit with general use items. Basically a doctored up over the counter kit.
