Supporting you with maintenance and repairs
We want to make cycling accessible to anyone who finds there are barriers to owning, maintaining or riding a bike.
When you a own bike, the time, cost and knowledge needed for bicycle repairs can often prevent you from riding your bicycle.
People who come to our courses feel empowered and confident to do everyday care and maintenance and to have a go at taking on some more challenging repairs
How can we help you?
fIX YOUR OWN BIKE
Come to our workshop to fix your bike and you can have full access to space, tools and expert advice from our mechanic. Find out more here.
CYCLE TRAINER
We offer cycle training for anyone who can’t ride a bike or who has lost their confidence with riding or negotiating traffic. These sessions are run on a one-to-one basis so can be planned around your needs; we can help you with riding itself, choosing your bike and luggage, setting up your bike or planning your route.
Courses
Our 4 week block of evening classes will allow you to gain a greater understanding of your bike & increase your confidence to maintain it between services.
Each week covers a different area of bike maintenance and you will gain hands on experience with brakes, gears and bearings.
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS
We can run one off maintenance courses to take place during your festival or event programme. In the past, we have loved running ‘Introduction to Bike Maintenance’ and ‘Trailside Repairs’ workshops at the Fort William Mountain festival and the Highlands and Islands Climate festival.
workshops
One off workshops covering the basics ran throughout the year. Check the calendar for the next date.
If you are looking for a bespoke workshop covering a specific topic or skill for a small group of people please contact us.
WORKPLACE TRAINING
We can support cycling in your workplace. Through visiting and carrying out a Dr Bike Session we can make cycling to work easier for your workforce.
By providing training for staff who are looking after workplace bikes, your fleet can be more self-sustaining.
