Patch and Pedal events in Larne, Ballymena and Carrickfergus in partnership with East Belfast Mission
Mid and East Antrim will be hosting its first Patch and Pedal event as part of Reuse and Repair Week 2026.
Patch and Pedal will offer a series of free, drop-in bike repair sessions taking place in the borough’s parks this June.
"Whether it’s a quick fix, a safety check, or you would just like some advice we’re working alongside East Belfast Mission to help get you rolling again,” stated a post on MEA Outdoors, the social media page for Mid and East Antrim Borough Council’s Parks and Open Spaces Development Team.
Running from 10am-2pm, the sessions will be at Town Park, Larne (beside the skate park) on Saturday, June 6; the People’s Park, Ballymena on Saturday, June 13; and Legg Park, Carrickfergus on Saturday, June 20.
Included are free bike checks and basic repairs; advice from experienced mechanics; learning simple fixes, and help with any type of bike.
All ages and abilities are welcome; the events are not suitable for electric bikes.
No booking is needed.
