Mountain Bike Wilderness First Aid Class

Paramedic Sean Andrasik of the Ride Guides and Backcountry Medical Guides will lead a Mountain Bike Wilderness First Aid Class in Santa Cruz, CA the weekend of November 14 & 15. In this two day course, you’ll begin each day at 8 AM learning first aid for common backcountry medical and trauma emergencies while riding some of the best singletrack in Santa Cruz County.
