The goal of this workshop is to demystify winter bicycling. We’ll talk about best practices for bikes, gear, attire safety, and comfort. We’ll debunk myths (i.e. you need a winter beater, you need special clothes) and we’ll offer special tips for keeping your bike operating smoothly throughout the winter season.

Participants will also learn some basic bike anatomy and vocabulary, how to care for your bike, and how to diagnose common issues.

The workshop is two hours long and is hosted by the Generator Makerspace in Burlington’s South End.

Please wear closed toe shoes and clothes that can get a little dirty.

Participants will go home with a bottle of chain lube, a pair of tire levers and a patch kit!

Also, pizza is provided.

Also, if 10 or more people show up, we’ll give away a $50 gift card to the shop (so please show up!).

This workshop, the materials provided, and the gift card giveaway are made possible with support from our friends at Local Motion.

We appreciate you marking “Interested” or “Attending” via the Facebook event, but you must reserve your spot on our Eventbrite to attend.
