Handy Bikes Classes and Events

Meet in the parking lot of the Handy Bikes Service Center.

At the start of each ride, we'll go over introductions to have a sense of participants' cycling experience.

Over the course of our rides, we'll address the following:
group riding dynamics;
safety (ABC check & trail hazards); gear shifting;
hill climbing;
audible and hand communication within the group, with other trail users, and automobile drivers;
what to bring on each ride; etc...

Bring your questions, water & a snack.

When it starts getting dark earlier, we'll need lights as well.
Helmets a MUST.

If you can, and especially if you've had issues with your bike, come a bit early to have it looked at ahead of the ride.

PS - all levels are welcome to join, however, be mindful that if you are an experienced rider, please be prepared to ride at the pace of the newest rider in the group.

Each week, depending on who's in attendance, and participants' riding ability/comfort level, we may do skills practice as a group in the parking lot or at the west end of Wheeler Ave. Once everyone is comfortable, we'll go for a ride on local trails and neighborhood streets and finish back at the shop.

Happy Pedaling !!

Are you a bicyclist who loves beer? Come out for the monthly Handy Bikes x Port City Brewing Pedals & Pints Short ride! This ride meets at 10 am for sign in and leaves at 10:30.

We have teamed up with our neighbors on Wheeler Avenue, Port City Brewing, to bring you Pedals & Pints. We'll leave from the bike shop and tackle about 10 miles round trip at about a 15 mph pace. You'll work up a thirst and return to plentiful brews and a rotating food truck on site just down the street at Port City Brewing.
