• Save the date: Learn to repair and look after your bike

Bike safety isn't just about adopting precautions when cycling; it also involves taking good care of your two-wheeled companion.

The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR/RSE) Department is running a participatory workshop on bicycle mechanics, led by two experienced cycling enthusiasts: Maelle, a bicycle mechanic, and Raphaëlle, a bicycle mobility coordinator.

Are you interested in:

•    Learning how to repair and look after your own bike yourself

•    Learning about the best practices to look after your bike properly (tire pressure, keeping your chain in good condition, checking the brakes, etc.)

•    Learning how to pump up your tires correctly

•    Testing and adjusting your brakes, gears, saddle and handlebars

•    Learning how to carry out simple repairs such as changing:
          - brake pads, cables and casings
          - the derailleur
          - the chain (repair or replacement)
          - inner tubes or tires (equipment suited to your bike type that you must provide yourself)

•    Attaching accessories safely and reliably

•    Knowing whether or not you need to take your bike to a professional repair shop

•    Keeping your bike repair budget to a minimum

•    Knowing what equipment all cyclists need

•    Seeking advice on how to adjust your bike to make it more comfortable

Come along on November 26 between 12 noon and 2pm (the venue will be confirmed at the beginning of November).
