EMERGENCY BIKER FIRST AID by a St John Ambulance advanced first aider and former member of VSOC centre 8	Chris Hance\| 18, Jan, 2010 at 22:27

An easy going training session, but real training, in what to do when you or a friend have a bike accident. We have probably all witnessed a motorcyclist being involved in an accident and wondered what could we do. We probably walked on by or stood and watched because we didn't know what should we do. This is your chance to know what to do for your friends, fellow bikers and even your family. This course will show you how to remove a full faced helmet when someone is not breathing, how to perform CPR (External heart massage) how to stop bleeding and manage fractures and sprains, shock and heart failure, asthma, alergic reactions and all in a day. All equipment will be provided and all will receive a club certificate stating they attended and passed assessment of the VSCO Centre 8 emergency biker first aid session. I promise you no one will be embarrassed, no one will fail this session. I stake my reputation on that. David John Harris Grad IOSH MIIRSM AIEMA MBICSc

My thoughts on Centre 8	Bob Harris\| 21, Dec, 2009 at 20:53

Hi Gang By the time you read this 2009 season and xmas has already gone. There was lots of things going on in the Club last year most of it caused by a few members. Lets hope all of us can put it all behind us and get back to a real good club again. We have the chance with a new committee and a new year, so please support the club by turning up at as many do's as you can. Ride Safe Bob H
