[Day Date, Time] @ the bike school (85 Anderson St, PORTLAND MAINE) 

This two-hour class will start with teaching you how to fix a flat, before moving on to cover other common mechanical issues you might encounter while out on a ride. By the end of the class, you'll know how to put together a basic tool kit, how the various parts of the bike work together, how to repair a flat tire, how to re-install a dropped chain, and when you should call someone to be picked up!    

In addition to new skills, you'll walk away with a new tube, tire levers and patch kit, so that you're ready for your next adventure. 
 

Things to bring:  

  • Your own bicycle. If you don’t have one, let us know and we will have one ready for you to practice on   
  • A notebook for taking notes (if you like taking notes) 
  • Some clothes that you don’t mind getting greasy (we also have aprons)  

Classes have a maximum of 4 participants to ensure high quality instruction. 

Classes are designed for adults. For anyone under age 18 interested in signing up, we ask that you reach out to us directly.
