This is JUS.
This weekend, our sister shop, Culture Club, will be hosting a Grease Monkey Bike School!
The theme for this school is "Your First Rinko (Bike Packing)."
"Rinko" is a method of traveling by public transport, such as trains, by packing your bicycle into a dedicated bag. However, to do this, you have to remove the front wheel—or both wheels, and sometimes even the handlebars—of your bike. Even once you’ve taken the wheels off, you have to be sure to put them back on correctly, don't you?
How do you remove the wheels? What kind of problems might occur? And how do you deal with those problems...?
What do you think? There's probably quite a lot you aren't sure about, right?
Whether you are new to Rinko or have done it before but still feel a bit uneasy, join us for the Grease Monkey Bike School to master Rinko techniques and head out to see new sights with your favorite bike!
-Your First Rinko-
Date and Time: Sunday, December 24, 2017, from 10:00
Duration: Scheduled for approximately 2 hours
Capacity: 5 people
Fee: ¥2,000 per person
Location: Culture Club / 1-4-8 Matsubara, Naka-ku, Nagoya
Perk: Includes coffee or a drink from PFM
What to bring: A Rinko bag if you have one (you can still participate without one)
If you do not have a Rinko bag, you can purchase one at a 20% discount at the Circles storefront or via our WebShop. (We will contact you separately after you sign up for the school.)
Also, if you can bring your own bike, we highly encourage you to try Rinko with your own machine. If it's difficult for you to bring your own, we will have a few bikes available for you to use on the day.
Since we will be performing actual work on the bikes, we recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting dirty or bringing an apron.
Please register via the Culture Club website.
We look forward to your participation.
