Ever wondered how to do basic bike maintenance? Well, here's your chance! Come on out for this fun, friendly, chick-only workshop on basic bike duties like cleaning and lubricating your chain, adjusting your brakes, and changing a flat tire. We'll teach you what to do, and then answer any questions while you work on getting your own trusty steed up to speed. At the end, we'll have the option of taking a leisurely cruise through the neighborhood on our nicely tuned up wheels.

Cost: $10 (includes basic supplies like lube, rags, tools, use of stands, etc) Bring extra cash if you want to get a snack at the end of class.

When: Saturday June 30 noon to 3-ish
