Maintenance Course – Touring repairs

Maintenance Course – Wheel Truing

Maintenance Course – Brakes

Maintenance Course – Gears

Due to overwhelming demand from you and some time and enthusiasm on our part we will be running a series of bike maintenance courses.

The first will be the most basic course which involves learning the some of the names of bike parts, rear wheel removal, patching a tube and a basic safety check. I was hoping to run the first class next Tuesday the 5th of July if there were enough takers but I understand it’s late notice. The price is $60, with a minimum of 2 prticipants for the course to run and a  maximum of 4 people, start at 6:30 and we’ll try to wrap up between 8 and 8.30pm. Non refundable-Prepayment is mandatory to secure your place.  Just give us a call or email.

The 12th will be a brakes course,  the 26th will be gears, the 2nd of August will be hub overhaul, the 9th of August will be basic wheel truing and the 16th will be the pre touring trip course.

If you would like some specific on-on-one training this can be arranged after hours at $70 and can cover teaching you skills that match your aptitude or desired aptitude.

Nothing but Bikes, Mike Rubbo – Tap Gallery

Mike Rubbo will be exhibiting prints and sketches from his ‘Cyclonica’ series at Tap Gallery in Darlinghurst from July 4 to 17.

Nothing But Bikes; Beauty in Utility.

From July 24th till July 17th. every day from noon till 6 pm. Official celebration 3 pm. Sunday 10th July. All who come by bike on Sunday will be in the draw for art.

Mike Rubbo’s linocuts, rubbings and solar prints celebrate the grace and beauty  of sit-up bikes.

Having been blogging about the European style of riding for several years (situp-cycle.com) Mike hopes to use graphics  to boost the status of these bikes since he believes that the sit-up bike is the key to dramatically growing utility cycling in Australia.

It’s no accident that all the bike share schemes in the world, the Velibs in Paris, the Boris bikes in London, the Bicings in Barcelona and the Bixis in Montreal,  are all sit ups.
