These are the notes from our workshop held last summer at Blackstone Bicycle Works.

Mary de Backer and other sisters chat after a workshop on cleaning and lubing bike chains, lubing and adjusting brakes, etc. There were about 20 sisters at this event, held in 2003 in the Logan Square neighborhood.
