Bicycle Maintenance & Repair Course @ Eastdale

The Bicycle Maintenance and Repair course teaches easy methods for maintaining and repairing a bicycle. Students began by simply identifying bicycle parts and tools for working on them before moving into basic adjustments and maintenance. The basics include repairing gears and chains, changing flat tires and adjusting and replacing brakes. This course generally involves more hands-on practice with the bike; however, in addition to basic mechanical education, students have also looked at the principles behind cycling for fitness and they are studying various bicycle routes and terrains. Thanks to the teacher, Mr. De Abreu for providing students with a holistic and 'hands-on' experience!
