Basic Bike Maintenance

Course description: In the firat two bike maintenance sessions you will learn how to degrease the drive chain; repair a puncture, know what tire pressure you should have and ensure that your gears and brakes are working (well!). Cleaning materials will be provided, but you will need to provide your own bike.
In the remaining two sessions you will be taken out onto local roads to gain confidence and learn where you should – and shouldn’t be: in traffic, for example; what to do at junctions and where to put yourself/your bike to maintain a safe riding position.
You must wear a cycle helmet for the road sessions.
