Anyone know of any maintenance courses you can take around the Birmingham area ? is there a college course or anything along those lines ? Always wanted to do more on my bike other than oil changes, fit a battery and new bulbs.

Mm very odd that, I got the same page for Newcastle as I got for the Brum area. I couldn't see on the page where to type in a specific area. So here's the link for the Newcastle area (I think if you googled a bit you'd find courses much cheaper and free possibly, at your local college.) http://newcastle.floodlight.co.uk/newcastle/courses-cla...omain.html

Maybe there's a reduction if you bring your own spanners...or in your case, spanner.

There aren't any bike maintenance courses at all round here but my bike instructor runs ad hoc courses for any one who's interested. There's two or three of us who sort of plan to club together to hire his services but we haven't done yet cos none of us have got any spare cash (same old....) Could be worth checking local bike schools cos even if they don't offer a course, they will know about any locally

When I asked about a m/c maintenance course, some years ago now, I couldn't find one in Huddersfield. There was one running at Wakefield college.

If we get a spell of fine weather forecast I'll post a thread to gauge the interest Unless there's somewhere under cover that wee could use I'll need the help of one or two more "handy" people To help out on the day Maybe a good opportunity to have the "Try before you Buy" event On the same day For those of us who are "vertically challenged" Here's hoping for good weather
