Start: 7:00 pm
Intermediate Bike Repair Workshops The classes are taught by experienced mechanics and provide an intimate, focused, learning environment. The number of participants is limited to 6 per class. The class outline is structured and focused to cover as much as possible in a relatively short amount of time. As a beginner to bike repair, we expect you will learn a lot and come away feeling much more comfortable with the workings of your machine. It is also an ideal refresher for someone who has taken a class in the past, or has some limited, but spotty experience. You will almost certainly learn some new techniques and tricks. Intermediate Workshops do not have to be taken together or in any particular order. Please bring your bike if possible. You will probably get dirty, so dress accordingly! | ||
