December is coming to a close and the new year is just around the bend. To many people this means a time to start eating healthier and exercising; to cyclists it means a time to ready our bodies and bikes for the new season. If we get ready now, when the first beautiful day comes around in the spring we can be ready to ride.
Here at the Trek Bicycle Store in Saint Louis we want to help you get ready for the new season. We are offering two types of classes to get you geared up and ready to go, spinning and maintenance.
We have a spinning class offered every Wednesday night at 8:00 PM which has been going on for a couple of weeks now, but you are welcome to join at any time. Each week brings a new session. All you need is your bike and your trainer and $7 to join in the fun.
If you don't need to get your body ready for the new season, but your bike needs a little work, we are also going to offer a maintenance class every Thursday night starting on January 10th. These classes will be different every week. Each will cost $10, or you can purchase entry to the entire series for $50.
The schedule looks like this:
Jan. 10 - Pre-Ride Bike Check
Jan. 17 - Cleaning/Lubing your Bike
Jan. 24 - Rim Brake Class
Jan. 31 - Derailleur Class
Feb. 7 - Disc Brake Class
Feb. 14 - Wheel True Class
These classes will be held at the shop from 6:30 to 7:30 with the last half hour for question and answer time with Gary, and help purchasing any tools or supplies before we close.
