Clinics or seminars for newbies?
Are there any So. Cal. shops that put on clinics on bike maintenance or machanics? Seems like a good idea but I haven't heard of any.

I'd even pay money for that.... but I'd like to record it on video to post pieces in my safety presentations.

You can check with your local REI, although I've read that some have not been happy with their classes - depends on the instructor. Of course, they offered a free class recently, so you can't go wrong with that.

The LA Tri Club is putting on a maintenance clinic on January 24. No price, so I'm assuming it's free. According to the post, it looks like non-members are welcome, although call and double-check. I plan on going, so if you are required to be escorted by a club member, I will be happy to do so.
