Interested In A Bike Workshop Course? -tauranga/waikato Area

Postby Mr_Bob on Fri 16/Jan/09 9:40pm

Just gauging some interest in the Tauranga region,
I'm looking into running a bike servicing course
Touching on a few aspects such as
Bike fit and suspension setup for mountain bikes
Gear tuning and trouble shooting with brakes and gears
some nutrition and supplement information,
And also some mountain bike handling skills
Learn from a bike mechanic who has been working on bikes for 10 years.

It would possibly be an evening run course,
Learn and work on your own bike.

If you have any feedback, or anything in particular You would like to learn more about,
please feel free to post :)

Location and dates are to be advised

I'm pretty sure the polytech in Christchurch runs a course of sorts.
I don't know a lot about it, but it might be worth looking into.

I clicked 'yes', but in reality I probably wouldn't be able to get to Tga for a course unless it was run next summer.

Great idea though, Mr Bob. :thumbsup:

Well.....
If you can find a group of like minded individuals who would be interested in a course Mel, I would make the trip over to the Tron.
How's that for an offer. :)
