Could any one give me some suggestions about what i should include in a Trail First Aid kit. I had a fairly large coming together with a fence post and my face whilst riding the Mendips and would like to be a little better prepared next time.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

pics of said wound would be good.

I do have a picture. How / where would i upload it?

I carry a small first aid kit under my saddle. Also, get yourself on a first aid course with St.John Ambulance it can be invaluable.

It contains:

Triangular Bandage
Safety Pins
Foil Blanket
Antiseptic Cream
Plasters
Various Sterilised Dressings
Small Knife
Roll of Insulation Tape
and a
Machine that go's PING ;-)

and learn CPR :-)

I was thinking about doing a "First Aid Section on the Site" including printouts etc. to shove in the camelbak.

Would people find this useful? If the reponse is positive I'll make a start.

I'd find it useful please. Thanks for the advice already given.

How is the fence post?

Getting along just fine thank you. Bike and fence post were un blemished in the accident, it was only me with any injuries.
