Morning all! Just thought I'd throw this out there: a bunch of us are heading out in a week or so on a week long ride. Last night the idea popped into my head about having a first aid kit aboard the bike, cause ya never know right. Just curious if any of you keep one in your bike and where ya got it. Thanks!

I carry a small trauma kit with me on the bike, along with a mini compressor and a small battery jumper. The trauma kit is very similar to this one: https://www.survival-supply.com/mili...ak-p-5576.html and I added some over the counter stuff to go with it, Aleve, chapstick, sunscreen, etc, as well as an additional tourniquet. I also removed it from the canvas pouch and fit everything in the kit into a 1-gallon Ziploc for compactness.

No matter what you decide to carry or how technical you get with it, know how to use the stuff.
Oh, and at least carry a tourniquet, a real one. If there is major, uncontrolled bleeding, the average person can get by with just that until help gets there. And again, practice on something so you know how to use it.

I'm a medic and carry the necessities, along with glucose gel, small bottle of aspirin for any heart stuff. Half a dozen pairs of rubber gloves. All the blood control equipment. There's more but it common "stuff". I've come across 3 nasty motorcycle accidents and glad I had what I had. I also carry a good trauma kit in my cage.
