Are you at least 8 years old?

Would you like to learn how to fix your bike? You could sign up for upcoming classes in Monterey.

Learn how to inflate tires, change a flat, adjust brakes, and keep your bike clean and lubed. These basic maintenance skills will be taught, along with some safety tips, including proper helmet fit.

The class needs a minimum of six students to be taught, and only four have signed up. So hurry! Classes will be held July 31 and Oct. 30. Both classes meet at Casanova Oak Knoll Park Center, 735 Ramona Avenue, Monterey. They are taught by E. Chavez.

For ages 8 through 13, class is 5:30 to 7:00 p.m.

For ages 14 and older, class is 7-9 p.m.

Through the City of Monterey recreation department. $20 for residents, $26 for non residents. For more information, visit Mari Lynch's blog Bicycling Monterey here.
