Wom+n's Workshop

We’re pleased to say our Wom+n’s Workshops are back! 

These sessions are a great opportunity build skills and friendship over with a trusty bike spanner in hand. These sessions tackle basic bike maintenance at a gentle pace, with plenty of time allowed for questions and hands-on learning. Wom+n’s workshop are open to anyone who identifies as a woman (including trans) and anyone who is non-binary. To tackle repeated issues of no-shows, our courses are now pre-paid, but do get in touch if cost is a barrier to you. These workshops are ran by some of Ride On’s volunteers who are looking to help empower others. Although experienced mechanics, If they feel a bike is not suited to the course they reserve the right to use a training bike instead. 

Puncture Repair and M Check

6-8pm Thursday 14th & 28th May

Be free from the fear of the dreaded puncture! Getting a puncture whilst out on the road can be a real concern for some. In this session we’ll share the easy way to fix a puncture, including tips for removing and replacing your wheels, finding the source of the puncture, and patching the tube. We’ll also cover some preventative measures. With this knowledge and plenty of time to practice, you’ll never be stranded again. Any extra time will be spent doing a basic ‘M-check’ – a methodical way to go through the bike, checking for existing or developing faults.
