“Excellent presentation. Clear to understand. Very informative” – Bob from London
“I had high expectations from the course as I know Spike’s reputation and it didn't fail to deliver. The course did exactly what it said on the tin and was aimed at just the right level. Spike’s delivery was engaging and the class was good humoured. The course was a mixture of demonstrations followed by a hands-on approach – probably the best way to learn is by doing. Both Spike and Ian came round to help and gave practical tips” – Carole from Manchester
“Things I once thought of as being really hard such as taking off a rear wheel and sorting a puncture were made easy with a little know-how learned from Spike and Ian. The course was really enjoyable and I have come away safe in the knowledge that next time I am out on my bike and have a problem I won't have to rely upon a good Samaritan” – Jacqui from Manchester
“I attended the above workshop yesterday and just wanted to tell you how fantastic the content and delivery was. I consider myself a pretty experienced cyclist, yet I still learnt an awful lot. Spike and Ian were just brilliant and were able to pitch the session perfectly. At no point did we feel patronised or unable to ask questions, and this was reflected by the amount of interaction between Spike and Ian and their audience. Lastly, I’ve been spreading the word about the workshop and would recommend anybody attending one irrespective of prior knowledge” – Simon from Birmingham
“Really good – a workshop is ideal and welcome, as basic knowledge is hard to come by. Good tips. Things I knew how to do I can do more efficiently – and lots of things I did not know” – Grant from London
“Excellent course, very well run, extremely informative and worthwhile. I will be recommending this to cycling friends” – Liz from Birmingham.
