After dreaming of this day for almost 5 years Beryls' Night is finally with us!
What is Beryls' Night?
It's all about creating an open and welcoming atmosphere for women to explore bike maintenance, and will comprise a bi-weekly structured session on a subject followed by supported workshop access.
When and Where?
Wednesdays 6-9pm
The format will be structured teaching from 6-7pm, supported workshop access 7-9pm
at Oxford Cycle Workshop Training Centre, Ashlar House, Glanville Road, Oxford OX4 2DD.
There's nothing quite as satisfying as fixing something yourself, especially something as essential as your bike! So get down to our women’s workshop night to learn a trick or two and have a go a fixing up your two-wheel friend yourself.
Only £3 for your first time, dinner included. Thereafter we encourage becoming a full member for only £10.
