A flat tyre or a noisy chain should not keep a bike in the shed. This two-and-a-half-hour hands-on workshop at Macleod Community Hall in Macleod covers the maintenance essentials that keep a bike safe, reliable and ready to ride, with plenty of time to practise on your own bike.
What the workshop covers
- Demonstration and explanation of bicycle maintenance essentials
- Identifying the parts of a bike
- How to complete a safety check
- How to change and repair a flat tyre
- Looking after the drive-train
The session runs on Sunday 28 February 2027, 2pm to 4.30pm. Please arrive 5–10 minutes early to sign in and be seated. It is delivered by Bike It Better as part of Banyule City Council's 2026–27 bike skills and maintenance programme.
Bring your bike, or just yourself
Participants can bring their own bike to carry out maintenance checks and get help with basic issues. As the workshop is held indoors, bikes need to be clean, especially the wheels. Instructors bring tool kits for participants to use, and anyone who brings their own tools can learn how to use them. Shared tools are wiped with disinfectant after each use.
Who can join and cost
The workshop is open to people aged 13 and over, and teenagers must be accompanied by an adult. Entry is $25, or $5 with a concession, and bookings are essential. The same workshop also runs at Henry Street Community Hall in Greensborough on Wednesday 17 March, 6pm to 8.30pm.
