EMS Bicyclist Profiles

RED BIKE medical technologies

RED BIKE supports EMS professionals to be engaged in bicycling. This includes engagement in EMS Bike Teams - but also - we strongly advocate bicycling as part of an EMS professional's fitness regimen.

To be able and ready to respond when individuals are in a crisis - it is imperative that we be physically fit as well as intellectually and emotionally ready.

Too, bicycling is simply a lot of fun, can be a wonderful social activity and can serve to support important causes like the National EMS Memorial Bike Ride.

This page is dedicated to profiling individuals engaged in EMS that are also avid bicyclists.

If you would like to be profiled or if you know of an EMS bicyclist that you would desire to be profiled contact richobertots@redbike-med.com about how to submit information along with photos or video.
