I always thought this was a cool idea when I was running races or triathlons in other cities.

We were talking with a bike popo the other day about how an extracycle would really be beneficial for these EMT folks.

Wow, who is going to be the first person to use these services at the BG 10K?

Not it!

"Each bike medic will carry a 50- to 70-pound pack of equipment, including a defibrillator, oxygen therapy, cardiac drugs and most other medical items available on an EMS truck."

that is insane.
