Report of the weekend : Click on the patchwork below 

For our 2nd course in Khayelitsha, we were stoked to have 15 motivated ladies, from Grassroots Youth Academy.

During two days, they’ve learnt the « Basics of Bicycle Mechanics » (10 hours), and they did so well !

They students worked on :
– How to wash and lubricate a bike?
– How to repair a puncture?
– How to adjust a derailleur and brakes?
– How to change the derailleur cable and brake cable?
– How to change a handlebar tape?

Few of them will do a job shadow in a bicycle shop, in order to improve their mechanic skills, and discover a professional environment.

Congratulations ladies !
