Hi - Matt said it was OK to run this by you all ...so here goes !

I run a First Aid Training company - TrainAidInc - and we deliver First Aid training courses (HSE and Community) UK wide - one being our tailor written First Aid for Bikers Course. 

Written by bikers, delivered by bikers and specifically for bikers looking at biking relevant incident and injury management. 

You all know that as good as you are at looking after yourself on the road, there are some folks out there that just don't get it - and accidents happen ! 
Do you know what to do if your fellow biker is lying there unconscious on the road ? Do ya move 'em ? If a casualty is unconscious that can lead to asphyxia, which can cause death in a very short time - possibly before an ambulance turns up. If your casualty IS conscious - do you take their helmet off ? What if they have a spinal injury ?

All these issues cleared up in a 3 hrs short course that offers you knowledge, confidence and a Certificate valid for 3 yrs.
First Course available at MFN (possibly 13th or 15th May but to be confirmed) and at just £15 a person - it's gotta be worth it ! 
What price to save a life ? 

Anyway - if ya think you might be interested in the MFN course or setting up a course in your neck of the woods - PM me !

Thanks folks and stay safe out there
