Mountain Biking Workshop
how can i promote an after school bike workshop?
I am in high school, me, a friend and a teacher (who all have knowledge with mountain bikes) decided we would make a bike workshop. its on every tuesday after school, we fix bikes for free, or show them how. the only thing they have to pay is parts, E.G. new wheel.
We advertised with posters around the school. it has been 4 weeks now and noone has came. how can we get people in?
I developed and taught an 8 week bicycle repair program for 40 kids… they spent 4 hours a day, 5 days a week working with me. It was a success but very expensive to operate… it cost nearly $1000 per student.
It seems you are doing all you can, and I hope you aren’t limiting the students to just MTBs since most are not going to have them… I bet you probably don’t have a true MTB either but that is beside the point.
Um, its interesting you used “new wheel” as an example of what might have to be replaced. How about repairing the wheel? Wheels almost never have to be replaced…
Yours is a cool idea and I hope you get some interest.
