Classes/Workshops/Seminars at the Bike Kitchen
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”13px”][vc_column_text]Bicycles are a fun, inexpensive, and healthy way to get around, but it’s a fact of life that maintenance is required to keep them running smoothly and safely. At the Bike Kitchen, everyday folks can come in and take a class, a workshop or a seminar on basic bike maintenance. Whether you’re a beginner or a fairly experienced mechanic, we cover all aspects and levels of bike repair and maintenance.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”13px”][vc_column_text]The Wrench-Up! program is 6 hours of training broken up into two sessions. These are small group classes (maximum 5 students), socially distanced, no tool sharing and masks mandatory. The course is $85 and includes use of all tools and ongoing support. If this is an economic challenge for you, please let us know and we’ll help you out.
The next Wrench-Up! session will be Sunday August 1 4pm – 7pm and Monday August 2 4pm – 7pm. Email john@bikewindsoressex.com for more information
We are committed to building a culturally diverse bicycle community. We strongly encourage minority, non-binary, trans and female folks to register for our classes, and we frequently host WTF* (Women/Trans/Femme/etc.) specific courses. Check out the calendar for more info.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”13px”][button size=”small” target=”_self” hover_type=”default” text=”See All Events” link=”https://bikewindsoressex.com/calendar/”][vc_empty_space height=”27px”][vc_empty_space height=”27px”][vc_column_text]
