Try out bike art lessons with Spoke 'n' Chain

A course giving people an introduction to the art of decorating bikes is being held at Bristol's Create Centre, run by Spoke 'n' Chain - the very same group that ran the recent cycling celebration at The Cube.

The aim is to create a pool of people who can run bicycle costuming workshops to spread the skills and the fun involved and to send out an open invitation to come and participate in cycling activities taking place later this summer.

Alongside the workshop will be an exhibition of costumed bicycles at the Create Centre.

To register email bikebeard@googlemail.com with your name, contact details and organisation (if applicable). The closing date is Tuesday, 6 April.

The course runs on April 20 and 21, April 27 and 28 and May 5 and 6 from 10am-4pm each day. It will cost £30 with bikes and materials being provided.
