Make sure to bring a camp chair, blanket, or something to sit on for the Backcountry Discovery Route Documentary and for around the campfire! Other lodging options are available in Meadville and Conneaut Lake if you don't want to camp, minutes from STnT. The Cove Motel is an excellent Mom-n-Pop that previous Clinic Riders have enjoyed!
Porta-johns, handwashing stations, bottled water, and 110v outlets to charge your phones/electronics will be available. Grocery stores and gas stations are a couple miles from the store to the west in Conneaut Lake and to the east in Meadville. A list of local eateries, markets, and the beer distributors will be emailed to participants. A tentative schedule is listed below, items and times subject to change.
Josh Hudson from "Roll Model: Trust, Try, Triumph" will be running a motorcycle accident response clinic on Saturday evening titled: Biker Down: Now What?! This clinic addresses what to do when you come across a collision: safe the scene, the legal issues, immediate emergency aid, how to prepare for EMS to arrive. They say that it isn’t a matter of “if” but “when” there will be an accident. Knowing what to do and what not to do can be the difference between making things better or worse. The clinic is not intended to certify individuals on first aid protocols but help riders gain basic awareness and knowledge as well as an opportunity to gain some hands on experience. The clinic will last approximately 1.5 hours and will include:
-Should you help? What is your legal and ethical responsibility? Good Samaritan Laws
-Assess the scene. Make scene safe for you. Make scene safe for them. What to consider in the environment
-Assess the situation, Evaluate the rider. Dos and Don’ts
-Critical Care= BBBB- Bleeding, Breathing, Broken Bones...Helmets & Riding Gear
-Communication: DCAP-BLTS (Trauma) & OPQRST (Pain)
-Special consideration when you are in the wilderness
You can also register for a special 1-day Level 1 Beginner to Intermediate Riding Clinic that will take place on Friday the 15th from 8a to 2p. There are only 6 spots! Head to the L1 May 15 GABH Clinic page for more information and to sign up! If you sign up for the Clinic, you automatically get registered for the GABH Rally too!
