free bike maintenance April 25th 5.30-7.30pm

[Sally Eva]

Not so local as the one under Peckham Arch but very close to a good coffee shop (see pic). This is Cafe Crol and it is at the junction of Dunton Road and Lynton Road on Quietway 1, London's best quietway. This free pit stop for bikes is funded by Southwark Cyclists and staffed by our volunteers under the supervision of south-east London's top pro mechanic (second pic).

They carry small parts such as cables and fix a lot of stuff by knowing what to do. They give advice -- "you need new brakes" and "you should clean your chain" being typical findings. They will fit parts if you bring them with you so if you know or suspect that you need new brake pads then bring them along.

The knowledge base on display is impressive and if you decide you want to know more they will re-direct you to our indoor sessions with hands-on help and tuition. These are in the Lettsom Tenants Hall at 114 Vestry Road SE5 8PQ.

The Dr Bike on the 25th is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/dr-bike-on-quietway-1-4/ and the next session of tuition on May 7th is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/free-bike-maintenance-with-hands-on-tuition/
