Lots of cyclists are on the streets of Houston these days, training for the Tour de Houston this Sunday and the marathon MS150 charity bike ride from Houston to Austin on April 17. So what better time for a bicycle repair workshop? It takes place Saturday, March 20 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the Andrea and Bill White Promenade of Discovery Green Park. This is a great event for all ages that pays dividends for years to come. Bring your bike and learn how to fix it courtesy of Project Bicycle Freedom.
