Registration
7:00-8:00am

You should have already completed a Rider Medical form if you have not; You will be asked to complete a Rider Form with medical and emergency contact details. This information is provided to the Ambulance Service and destroyed following the course. It is important that you make the staff aware of any medical problems or medications you take.
The number on this form correlates with your wrist band, to help first aid crew provide timely help in the event of an injury.
