Mechanics Jac Thomas and Mark Surrey are ready to help cyclists

CYCLISTS are invited to have bikes fixed for free and to receive maintenance tips at regular Dr Bike sessions.

A spokesman for Dr Bike, a Transport for London initiative, said: “All our mechanics are friendly and approachable and have a wealth of cycling knowledge, so feel free to pick their brains about cycle training or other cycling activities.”

He added: “Mechanics can check everything on your bike, from wheels, brakes, gears and tyre pressure to lights, racks, pedals, saddles and more.

“By the end, your bike will feel loved and cared for.”

The next Dr Bike sessions are from 10.30am to 12.30pm on Saturday, December 3, at Holloway Road Market, and from 1pm to 3pm at Drapery Square Market, in Holloway.
