For some bikes are a hobby, for others they are a primary or secondary mode of transport, and for many they are both. Cycling in general can be very expensive; we recognize that there is often a price attached to gaining valuable information regarding maintaining your own bike. For some this price may be a barrier to developing the skills required to confidently work on your bike. At Quick Cranks we believe that learning about your bike and spending time working on it is almost as fun as riding it (sometimes even more fun!). We have chosen to offer a “Pay What You Can” series that is designed to introduce participants to basic bike mechanics, 4 season riding, and the language to effectively communicate what may need to be adjusted on their bike. Our hope is that at the end of this 6 week series the participants will have a deeper understanding of how their bike operates, have a sense of curiosity about how to further develop their new skills, and have a greater sense of community in the Ottawa/Gatineau region. Some FAQ: What exactly does pay what you can mean? Nobody will be turned away for lack of funds. These seminars are set at $10, but if this doesn't match your budget you can use code 'PWYC' to get the workshop for free. If you'd like to pay a different amount, you can do so on the day of the seminar. Suggested registration cost is $5-15 ***If you would like to register for multiple seminars at a time, you may also select "Pay by Invoice" at checkout, and this will allow you to decide how much, if anything, you'd like to pay for your registration.
