Dr Bike will fix your bike for free Thursday May 17th


Recommended Posts

Our Dr Bike is one of the best. He's called Charlie and he operates with 2 top class amateur bike fixers. They will adjust your bike to fit, pump up your tyres, index your brakes (which means fix that annoying click, I think), tighten your brakes and generally make everything work more wonderfully.


They will be on Quietway 1 at the Dunton Road/Lynton Way lights from 5-7pm tomorrow Thursday May 17th. A picture of Charlie's tool kit is here https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/dr-bike-on-qw1-4/ and I'm hoping in the future to add a picture of his smile because it gladdens the heart.


With the mechanics who do all the hard work will be an auxiliary who drums up business, keeps the queue in order and hands out maps and gossip. Everyone is welcome. You do need a bike to take advantage of this amazing offer. Everything is free. A map of QW1 and a picture of the nearest coffee stop are attached.


We are Southwark Cyclists and we are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer and more enjoyable cycling in London. I think that's a good idea, don't you. https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk

    • Thanks to everyone who recommended Paul. He came to my rescure when my first floor shower / wet room started leaking. The leak was coming from between the tiled floor and the top of the drain. Paul first asked me to send him photos, then talked the problem through with me and, although he was willing to come out and fix the leak, he suggested I save the money by fixing it myself and told me what to do. It worked brilliantly. Paul was amazingly kind and is now number one on my contacts list should I ever have other tiling problems.  
    • Yep, national debt is different to deficit. National debt was £800 Billion in 2010 when the Tories first took office. Thy left office with it standing at £2.6 Trillion...
