Community Driven

Our Riders Course and Bench Time are all about the everyday riders wanting to learn more about their bike.  These programs give you the tools to learn in a hands on environment while working on your own bike.   Always fun and relaxed with lots of learning.

With our small class sizes you can choose to learn what you want to learn.

This course is designed for all riders; Mountain, Commuter, Roadie and even the E Biker. 

A 3 hour night course starting out with an introduction to the shop, tools, lubes and torque wrenches.  This is a place to learn to bleed your brakes, service a bearing, tape your bars or adjust your gears.  Class sizes are always very small so there’s a lot of attention and direction from the teacher while working on your own bike. 

Some of the skills we will teach include: 

  • Mechanic fundamentals 
  • Differences in types of grease, oil and lube
  • Bike setup 
  • The tools in your pack 
  • Trailside mechanics – What to do when…. 

 

Once completing this program we recommend that you come down for Bench Time to keep the learning going. 

Cost: $95
