Free bicycle maintenance workshops in Tarragona this May
May has become the ideal month for bike lovers in Tarragona. The Network of Civic Centers has launched a series of free activities that not only teach how to care for the bicycle but also invite reflection on how we move around the city.
With an eye on the Tour de France arriving on July 5, these initiatives are part of the CivicCleta project and the program 'Tarragona, the Tour at Home.'
Activities for all cycling profiles
Bicycle maintenance workshops
The workshops are designed to learn how to repair and maintain the bicycle without complications. From changing a tire to adjusting the brakes, these courses are an essential tool for anyone wanting to extend their bike’s life and avoid unnecessary expenses.
Talk on sustainable mobility
Additionally, there will be a talk that delves into sustainable mobility, a topic of growing concern in Tarragona. It will discuss how to transform daily commutes to make them more environmentally friendly and safer for everyone.
Context and relation to the Tour de France
