Tuning up Your Bikes
On Tuesday Dr. Reynolds gave a presentation about bike maintenance for the upcoming bike trip. As you may or may not know, bikes are the most efficient form of human powered travel. Here are some of the most important things to check and make sure your bike is ready for the trip:
· Are your tires worn?
· Are your spokes straight?
· Make sure your chain isn’t worn.
· Check to make sure your handlebars are straight and aren’t loose.
· Make sure your seat is properly adjusted.
· Check to make sure your brakes are adjusted to your rims.
