Wow - thanks for all the feedback. I'll definitely check out the class then. It meets two Saturdays in a row for three hours each time at Adventure something (?) in York, PA. They also have a class for basic on the road maintenance but it's Thursday nights at 5:30 pm and I'm in class till 6:00 pm (plus it'll take at least an hour to get to York) so I can't make that one. I just feel like I should really learn how to take care of my bike.
