Adventure Maintenance

Adventure Maintenance.

Learn essential bike repair skills • Prepare your bike • Ideal for anyone planning a big adventure

Our one-day Adventure Maintenance course will give you the skills, knowledge and confidence to carry out emergency repairs to keep you and your bike on the move.

The course has been created by Dakar race legend Simon Pavey and his team of experienced instructors. You can be sure you are getting all the tips and tricks, hard-won experience and inside knowledge that the team have earned through years of riding, travelling and racing.

The emphasis of Adventure Maintenance is ‘hands on’, learning through practical sessions and on-bike instruction, so be prepared to get your hands dirty.

Programme and lessons will cover:

  • Checking oil and fluid levels
  • Repairing oil and fuel leaks
  • Dealing with water crossings – and what to do if they go wrong
  • Replacing brake pads and components
  • Fixing punctures
  • How to jump start a bike
  • Preparation and common preventative tips you may need for travelling
  • Bike set-up, including controls and suspension
  • Emergency refuelling
  • Pre-ride safety checks
  • Pre-travel service

We supply everything needed for the course including a bike to work on, tools, spare parts and comprehensive instruction. All you need is enthusiasm.
