I’ve been teaching no-jargon, low-testosterone classes for 14 years (founded the Cycling Center, taught at Bike Gallery and City Bikes before that) to kids, women and guys. I like to coach people who consider themselves as un-mechanical.
If you and yours want to take my all women class - reach me for more details and let’s set a date.
The class steps are:
1 - I meet with each student briefly to talk about your bike’s condition, usefulness for your cycling goals and any special tools you’ll need for the class.
2 – A few days before the class, I email out a more detailed description of what we’ll be covering which are: SafetyCheck, adjusting bearings, brakes, gears, and wheel truing.
3 - Everyone arrives at BIKEmpowered’s mechanics school space at 8 a.m. (near 23rd and NE Alberta) , and move through each section until 4 p.m., taking a few short breaks as wanted and a 30 minute lunch break.
4 - If you have questions after the class, I’m available.
As we go through each step, I demonstrate how to do it, then give more tips for each student as they do it themselves.
Class max size: 6. Class cost: $60.

Thanks!
