Join your friends and family in jumping on your bicycles and rolling with us on a casual breakfast ride! Meet at Bushwhacker in Junction City by 8am. We’ll cruise at a leisurely pace of ~10mph to and from The Neon Bison. It is an about a 6.6mi ride each way.

We will cover:
– Why flats happen and how to prevent them
– How to identify parts of the bike and the tools that you need
– Hands on wheel, tire, and tube removal
– Discuss how to apply a patch
– How to correctly put the bike back together and reset the brakes
– Proper tire inflation and safety check

You will also learn about fun new tools and useful terminology, and you will receive your very own patch kit to carry on your bike!

***This workshop has a limit of 10 students. Please register to reserve your spot!***

Participants are encouraged to bring their own bikes. If you don’t have a bike, one will be provided by the co-op. Many bikes have different styles of wheels and brakes, so a larger variety of bikes means a better class for everyone!
