FTWN Workshop: Trailside Maintenance

  • Chain Reaction Bike Hub 1010 3rd Ave SW Cedar Rapids, IA, 52405 United States (map)

Calling all FTWN (femme/trans/women/nonbinary) folks - let’s talk trailside maintenance.

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll work through the basics of common trailside maintenance to keep you rolling, safe and confident!

We’ll cover:
✅ Fixing a flat tire - how to fix a flat, and what tools to carry
✅ Chain care - fixing a slipped chain, how to take care of your bike after a ride
✅ Common cleaning and adjustments - how to keep your bike riding longer, better
✅ Q&A - anything that’s on your mind - tools, tricks, etc

If you have a bike - bring it! It's okay if it's got some dust on it - this is a no judgment zone. If you don’t have a bike, let us know so that you can borrow one from the hub.

Reminder: Bike maintenance can be a greasy adventure. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.

Space is limited to 20 participants, so register here!

This class is FREE to the community. If you would like to donate to Chain Reaction for attending the class, we’d suggest a $10 donation.

Sorry fellas, this event is limited to women/femme/trans/nb volunteers and participants.
