Cycling First Aid courses by MG Training have been developed by cyclists for cyclists, who better to understand the issues arising when a cyclist meets a stationary object or a moving target, than those who cycle regularly and have experienced the issues themselves.

The course covers cycling specific incidents and injuries, with hands-on practical sessions related to the cycling environment. Helmet removal, making a scene safe and treating injuries are some of the areas covered. Our 1 Day course covers emergency techniques such as CPR, choking, bleeding, shock and the recovery position.

The course cost is £70 + VAT per person or if you wish to make a group booking the cost is £600 + VAT for up to 12 people

We cycled from Gordon’s home, in Little Bytham to Rutland Water. We then cycled the long way around. Which is 23 miles. The shorter way, around it, is 17 miles. Just in case, you wanted to know. By the time, we had both cycled back to Gordon’s house. We had done, just over 42 miles. Which took us 3 hours and 43 minutes. Our average speed, was 11.2 mph.
