A small selection of unsolicited comments on the LSC basic bike maintenance course....
"Thank you so much for Saturday's course: I really got a lot out of it. Your teaching style enjoyably de-mystified so many arcane tricks of the trade. My bicycle, about which I've been pretty uncomplimentary, felt entirely different - I bowled home in fine style.
I look forward to getting down and dirty with the de-greaser and the Fairy liquid.
Whoever would have thought that Punctures are Fun? Your notes are very good, too."
"The cycle maintenance course on Saturday was really useful, as well as being very enjoyable."
"Great session on Saturday - really enjoyed it!"
"Just a quick thank you for the excellent instruction on Saturday - really enjoyed it and learnt a lot."
"Thanks for the cycle workshop on Saturday, really helpful stuff. A bike will never seem the same again. My bike is running so much more efficiently now, I got to work much quicker this morning with the same amount of effort - amazing!"
"Just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed the maintenance course last Saturday. I have been raving about it all week and I have already put my newly discovered skills into action! You certainly demystified loads of stuff for me that I thought was really difficult. I am even just about to buy a bike stand so I can tinker away to my hearts content. So thanks very much. I will certainly be recommending the course to others."
"Had a great day last week; I really enjoyed the course and learnt a lot."
"Thanks so much for the course on Saturday. Susan and I both thought it was brilliant."
"Thanks for a great day - you would not recognise the bikes we have now, as I spent Sunday afternoon going over them with my new-found knowledge and completely cleaned and lubricated them; had a moment of panic trying to put the chain back on at one point, but followed your advice and toddled off for a cuppa before going at it again - no problem.
"We really learnt a lot at your course, and really appreciated going! Thanks for presenting in such an easy-to-understand way!"
"Thanks ever so much for this course. It might sound cheesy, but for the first time ever I had the feeling as if my bike really was MINE.
"Thanks for the course, very interesting and informative and I certainly feel alot more confident in looking after my trusty steed. Good to banish a few of the bike shop trade secrets too - mainly that this stuff isn't that complicated. It was a very enjoyable way to spend a Saturday."
"Great stuff!"
"Just a note to thank you for a very enlightening day on Saturday. I think this has much improved my relationship with my bike and I shall certainly be trying to deal with my punctures in a less panic stricken fashion."
"Just got back from a week's touring in Picos de Europa in Spain - it's beautiful there. Had a couple of punctures plus a couple of other problems on the way, and felt very confident as a result of doing your course. So thanks, that's exactly why I did it - these minor probs would have been holiday-ruining dramas otherwise."
"I seem to have come home on a new bike. I shall endeavour to keep it in this condition. Many thanks for the course."
