Summer Workshops
Many people have been asking us for more workshops! So here it goes a host of late summer delights to get you riding even smoother. Join us for a commuter skills course, or short and sweet basic maintenance workshops. These workshops are all PWYC, $10 Suggested Donation. Register via email, tegan@communitybikeshop.org
Commuter Skills - Tuesday August 26th, 5:30 to 7 at Del Crary Park
Review the knowledge and skills you need to ride comfortably and confidently through our city. You’ll also get advice about equipment, bike fit, and route planning (including an introduction to Peterborough’s network of trails and paths).
Air - Sunday August 16th, 12-1 at B!KE
Everything you need to know about tubes and tires. We’ll cover fixing flats, replacing tubes, preventing flats, and knowing when to replace your tires.
Brakes - Sunday August 23rd, 12-1 at B!KE
Learn the basics on rim brakes. Replacing pads, adjusting cables, and how to keep yourself stopping without a squeal.
Chain - Sunday August 30th, 12-1 at B!KE
Without your chain your bike is just an awkward scooter, yet this vital little part of the machine often goes ignored. Learn how to properly clean and lubricate the drive train. Adjusting shifters to avoid the “chkchkchkchk†noise will also be covered in this workshop.
