Speaking Of Bicycles

BY Beth Comery

bicycle partsMaintenance is key and you can learn how to do it yourself by going to ‘Wrenching Wednesdays’ at The Steel Yard. Four bicycle repair clinics rotate throughout the month and you can jump in at any time. For instance, tomorrow’s clinic is ‘Cables and Housing’ which covers “Installing, adjusting and tightening derailleur (Oh Tish, you spoke French) and brake cables. Learn how to fix skipping gears and rubbing brake pads”. Sliding scale of $5 to $10 — pay what you can. (Dave, I remain your foul weather friend.)

6:30pm, Wednesday, The Steel Yard, 27 Sims Street
