Curriculum: New Rider Maintenance
Welcome new riders!
While this class is named for "New Riders", it's also great for anyone who's
been riding for a long time, but would like help with the basics, as far as
service and repair.

I know of one particular rider, an advanced bike handler, but not the
greatest at roadside/trailside repair. Though this rider won the 2009
Leadville 100, he did so on a flat rear tire, which he had unsuccessfully
attempted to repair during the race... on camera. Who was this poor
fellow? Hint: his initials are Lance Armstrong... Oops. That slipped.

So take this class, and you'll already have one-up on that guy!

Really though, this might be the most important stuff to learn about your
bike. It's the stuff that'll familiarize you with your bike, and the stuff that'll get
you home if you have any "mechanicals" out on the road or trail.
Flat Fixin'
Price for this class is $45

For that, you will receive a complementary set of Tire
Levers and a Spare Inner Tube, since you'll be an
expert and changing flats. (Tube is your bike's size of
course)

Also, upon registering for this class, you will have the
option to purchase Park's "Big Blue Book of Bicycle
Repair" at 50% off! (A $12.50 value)

Aside from the invaluable knowledge, that's bout
$20 in free stuff and savings!
This class comes with these goodies!
