Summer’s here and your bike’s feeling it too!

☀️🚲 A few quick tips to keep her running smooth in the heat:

🔧 Check your tyre pressure regularly. Heat makes air expand, so what was perfect this morning might be overinflated by afternoon

🔧 Keep that chain l**ed (a drier, wax-based l**e holds up better than wet l**e when it’s warm out)

🔧 Don’t leave your bike baking in direct sun or a hot car. It’s tough on tyres, bar tape, and components

🔧 Long descent? Give your brakes a breather. Heat builds up fast under hard braking

🔧 Pop in for a once-over. Heat cycling can loosen bolts and stress frames over time, and we’re always happy to check yours!

Pop in and see us if you need a hand getting your bike summer-ready, we’re here all week! 🛠️

On Sunday our mechanic, Jam Price will be taking on a gruelling challenge of riding his road bike on a set of rollers at 15 different music venues in Stourport On Severn. This started as a way to raise money for three different charities and promote a free music festival the weekend after. This is a non profit making festival called StourJam in Stourport where 15 venues will host over 350 performers over 19 stages.

But this has turned into more than a charity event. It’s bringing the community of Stourport together and a very tough couple of weeks. Here’s Jam explaining more with a few quoted words ……

“A recap on why I’m putting myself through this…

Raising monies for 3 great charities
dementia_uk
Canal & River Trust
Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust

Promoting StourJam FREE music festival
Promoting all StourJam 2026 venues
Promoting all Stour Jam performers

In memorial of two of Stourports ‘Ace Faces’ who we’ve lost so suddenly and tragically over the past 10 days Steven Richards aka Stick Man Steve and the delightful Lidia Connolly 💔💔 Thoughts to all families and friends ♥️

May is with Sunday 31st being the last day. 💚 I’ve struggled (and always will). We need to check in on each other. And really ask the question ‘Are you ok? When they say ‘yeah I’m fine’, you ask again looking deep into their eyes, ‘Are you REALLY ok?’

My own personal sadistic challenge

And I want to make my family, my daughters, my close ones, my friends, ME proud! 💎♥️🫶🏁

And can I reiterate I am scared, worried, panicking about this challenge. It is going to be tough! Really tough!!! 😥

Can I do it? Well, we’ll find out on Sunday. Hoping to see you all somewhere at some point. 🙏’

Over the duration of the day Jam will ride 45 minutes on rollers at all 15 venues. Rough estimates makes it over 200 miles during 12 hours. He’ll also be riding from venue to venue.
