Flat tires are a nuisance but you can learn to repair them like a pro! Join us for an outdoor session where you'll get hands-on experience repairing your own bike's flat tire. This session is mandatory for first-year riders -- you can attend either the May 15 or June 4 session (or both if you want lots of practice). The session will be rescheduled if it rains.

Location: Queen's Park, north side (see image below)

Time: 4pm to 5pm

What to bring:

• Your bike

• A hand pump

• A pair of tire levers (buy a pair at your local bike shop if you don't have any)

• A spare tube just in case (buy a few at your local bike shop if you don't have any)

• A plastic hydraulic disc brake pad spacer if your bike has hydraulic disc brakes (buy one at your local bike shop if you don't have one yet)

You can get a discount on any items you need for flat repairs at these bike shops!

If your bike has tubeless tires, this session won’t be helpful to you. Instead, we recommend that you watch this video to understand how to repair them.
