Introduction To Bicycle Mechanics

As part of The Big Bike Revival | Cycling UK - Wheel Good Vibes CIC hosted 'Introduction to Bicycle Maintenance' evenings at Williams Cycles, Cheltenham.

These 'learn to fix' events were free to attend and the focus of the sessions were to teach riders the basics of how to keep their bicycle in good working condition. They were shown the ropes with help from our friendly, qualified mechanics Dan & Jake.

They ran through:

• How to check your bike before a ride

• What do do when you get a puncture

• How to check your gears are aligned

• How to clean your bike properly

These were basic sessions aimed at cyclists who aren't experienced with mechanics of any kind.

The turnout across the 4 sessions was fantastic leaving the riders feeling much more confident on maintaining their bikes.

Keep your eyes peeled for similar events in the future.
