Want to spend less time fixing your bike and more time riding it this summer?
Planet Youth, in partnership with Bike Temiskaming, is hosting a free Bicycle Repair Workshop during Day in the Park on Saturday, June 27, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Englehart Centennial Park.
Whether you're learning the basics or looking to improve your maintenance skills, experienced bicycle mechanics will be on hand to teach everything from fixing a flat tire and adjusting gears to cleaning chains, greasing bearings, and straightening a wobbling wheel.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own bikes, ask questions, and get hands-on help. Bike repair stands, tools, and some parts and supplies will be available during the workshop.
Everyone is welcome, making it a great opportunity to build confidence, learn a new skill, and get your bike ready for a summer of riding.
