(the full ALS spectrum? or a basic jump bag?) How do you carry it? (duh i know in bags) and how are you identified among the mass of people as paramedics? I can't see our usual dress BDUs, Polo shirt and boots working for this one.

Thanks in advance.
I'm a paramedic too, but not a bike one. I think Galls and some other places have cycling specific gear for police and EMS.
