Us
The Bike Doctors are a collective of bike mechanics with many years' experience
We share a passion for cycling, we want to help people enjoy cycling in any form, our particular focus as Bike Doctors is cycling as transport; our activities, whether it be Bike Doctor sessions, training or fleet maintenance, are pretty much all delivered using bike+trailer or cargo bike.
Bike Doctors
Put safety issues first, problems with gears etc. we will address if the queue is not long
Positive, approachable, honest
If in doubt – we think again, maybe take no action
Keep our 'weird detector' switched on when doing safety checks, spot serious problems that have escaped others' notice
Look out for ways to improve our service
When training, I want to
Keep people safe - this includes those that will be trained by my trainees
Pay attention - adapt, step back, take more control, shorten, expand - whatever helps learning
Keep enjoyment and challenge as keys to success
Remember that PowerPoint is information, not training
When things go wrong, learn the lessons to improve my own practice
