Course: Basic Motorcycle Mechanics & Maintenance
Learn basic maintenance by servicing your own bike over a week-end, under supervision of a qualified bike mechanic.
OK bikers & bikerettes – I've had enough interest in this, that its time to put the idea into practice.
I will be back in the UK by the end of June, so that is when I've arranged the first course for.
I wish we could do this for free - but after paying people at least their expenses, sorting out dry, warm facilities where we can work and sleep (and shower) for the weekend etc. The cost will be around £85.23 per bike for the 2 days.
I will buy lubricants, cleaners etc. in bulk, so we can all save. (And you don't have to ride with bottles of icky stuff in your luggage)
Will arrange to have tools available which people may not have - will sort this out on a one-to-one basis.
Only 8 bikes can be worked on at a time - so book your space now.
COURSE DETAILS:
Where: Near Kendal in the gorgeous country side of Cumbria
When: 18 - 20 June 2010
Accomodation: (2 nights) Bunk type barn with shower/bathroom facilities & kitchen. Bring your sleeping bag.
Meals: Group catering for breakfast & light lunch. Tea & coffee. Pub meal at night (pay your own). I quite like the idea of getting some of the local people involved, maybe arrange a hog roast or lamb or something for the evenings. Will get back to you with costs etc.
-- SAVE THE DATE --
I will follow this in the next few days with complete details about the contents of the course & other details.
