Hands-On Bike Workshop – Earth Day

No Need to Be Stranded – Free Bike Workshop on Earth Day, April 21, 2012

No one likes to be stranded. If you want to ride your bike knowing that you can handle minor breakdowns along the way, here’s your chance to find out how.

In celebration of Earth Day, on Sunday, April 22, we are holding a free hands-on workshop and basic bicycle repairs demonstration. If you’re not sure how to change and repair a flat tire, how to lube a chain or what tools to bring on a ride, then this hands-on workshop is for you. These simple skills will empower you to ride with confidence.

Join us at Almonte Bicycle Works, 101 Bridge Street on Sunday, April 22 between 1:00-3:00 pm. We will demonstrate the basic skills to get you on your way in case of a flat or minor break down.

Together we will celebrate Earth Day, and help our planet by riding often this biking season.
