Abstract
The Ore-Ida Womens Challenge bicycle stage race, the largest and longest womens stage race, requires extensive medical support, often in remote areas. The medical team has devised a system of support that can be used as a model. The six-member team includes a primary care physician, nurse, and emergency medical technician. Four vehicles are used to transport medications and supplies. Accurate medical records kept over 8 years allow the team to stock supplies and devise protocols for the injuries they are most likely to encounter. Verf.-Referat
