Most on-site event medical services consist of a sit-and-wait approach, with little visibility or availability to participants.
MedCycle is different: active, mobile, highly visible staff who are on the move.
Whether you have attendance of ten or thousands, MedCycle can provide all of the EMS staff, equipment, supplies & logistics to ensure your participants have the highest level of on-site emergency stand-by care.
From simple single-location stand-by response and education to advanced deployment and logistical needs, we can provide all Basic Life Support (BLS) services in a wide variety of scenarios.
When a medical situation arises, each second is critical to the patient’s outcome – and your event’s reputation. Bicycles allow us to initiate care quickly in a variety of areas, potentially de-escalating a situation. Aside from a medical emergency, our crews also provide guest assistance with simple things from band-aids to ice packs. Urban to rural, paved to off road, our specially EMS designed Volcanic brand bikes and our crews can handle most any terrain. We also support nighttime operations.
MedCycle provides medical services at many types of events, with customized tailoring for your specific needs. Every event is different, and we work with you to find the right solutions for your specific type of situation.

more about ipmba certification
IPMBA (International Police Mountain Bike Association) is the gold standard for bicycle training in emergency services.
