Not sure where to post this....bike maintenance courses....
Hi!
I'm in the process of planning a trip from Sydney to London leaving in Jan 09. The problem is, I know next to nothing about fixing a bike. I've got no aversion to doing so, but just wouldn't know where to start.....so i guess i need to learn!!
I'm not after learning how to pull apart a gearbox, or do anything too technical, but am sure knowing how to change a tyre/throttle cable/brake lever etc etc could come in very handy.
Anyone got any ideas where to start?? I've found a couple of things on-line on this site, but would like to be shown first hand and maybe then read up on it later.
Anyone know anywhere to do a bike maintenance course in Sydney?? Or anyone know where to start looking for something like this??
Alternatively, is it pretty basic and I could work it out myself with a book? As I said, not at all scared of pulling things apart, just don't know how to!! If it makes much difference, i ride an Aprilia Pegaso Strada...
Thanks!!!
J
