Brian Gravestock is ready to help. This 40-year master mechanic, who’s worked at some of the city’s premier bicycle shops: Criterium, Old Town and his own shop, will guide you through the dizzying choices, informing prospective buyers about styles, components and the various uses of each bicycle type. Brian will also explain the importance of fitting a bicycle for each rider; something some retailers skip. Join this informative presentation before you go shopping for a bicycle.
