SOLD OUT!!! - BEACON RCC BIKE MAINTENANCE CLASS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 20TH AT 17:20
Hi all,
It's here, the Bike maintenance class for people who know very little about bike maintenance. This will be led by Mick Stanford and takes place on WEDNESDAY MARCH 20TH - 17:20-19:50 to at:
Holloway Hall Community Association
Holloway, Ley Hill, Birmingham B31 1TT
There is a maximum of 12 people on this course, first come, first served, and if it is over-subscribed, we'll organise another one in April.
You will learn how to keep your bike on the road by checking & fixing common problems. We will talk through some of the most common trail side repairs. Please bring your bike with you plus any tools you would normally carry on your ride. Pump, tube, multitool, etc.
We will start with pre-ride checks, know as an M Check. This can help identify potential issues that could arise on a ride.
We will then go through the practicality of trail side repairs such as **flat**s, splits in tyres, (this will be for both tubes and tubeless), broken spokes, broken chains, broken gear cables. This will include items you can carry to help with these repairs.
Will will also cover replacing disc brake pads, removing and putting on a cassette and anything else we have time for.
SIGN UP BELOW:
Ian Gannon
Liz IAnson
Carina McGovern
Steven Moses
Noel O'Dwyer
Neil Orchard
Phil Richards
Mariana Sorrill
Chris Thompson
Michelle Thompson
Simon Turner
Karl Walton

Only 1 place left for this course. I will look at running another in April or May for those who can't make this one.
The reason to bring your lovely clean bike along is so you can give it a safety check. I promise I won't be getting you to break your chain to practise repairing it. If you do have an old, clean chain though please bring it with you.
We will also look at reindexing gears, it is easier than you think.
Role on Wednesday, see you there

If any one has any old quick links then please bring them along to the maintanace course. I have new ones but they are rather expensive to use to practise on old chains see you all later
