The DocBike NextGen course is available free of charge for riders:

• aged between 16 and 35
• who have a current CBT (but not yet a full bike license)
• who have a motorcycle to bring with them (which they are legally permitted to ride on public roads)

The bike must be roadworthy, have a current MOT and be taxed and insured.

The DocBike charity combines a highly qualified (consultant-level) doctor and a critical care paramedic with two wheels to reduce deaths and serious injuries on our roads due to motorcycle collisions.

Wherever possible, this doctor or paramedic also works on the local air ambulance. It is part of their everyday job, to treat and save the most severely injured and sick patients and help them to reach the hospital alive.

When motorcyclists are involved in a collision, often the injuries are catastrophic, and no amount of medical care can save a person’s life. This is why a lot of the DocBike charity’s time is invested in preventing motorcyclists from being in a collision in the first place.

Working together with emergency services all across the UK, their aim is to have a DocBike associated with every air ambulance charity around the country. They are a new charity, but with enthusiasm from:

• local bikers
• colleagues in the emergency services 
• other agencies throughout the UK
