Are you planning a trip to the snow this winter but want to make sure you can safely fit chains and confidently navigate alpine driving conditions? This hands-on workshop is designed to give you the skills and knowledge to enjoy your next winter adventure.   We'll start indoors in the warmth, where you'll have the opportunity to practice fitting chains on a demonstration wheel mounted on a stand. We'll also discuss safe driving practices in snowy and icy conditions, including when chains are required, how to drive with chains fitted, and other tips to help keep you safe on the mountain.   If weather conditions permit, we'll finish the session outside with the opportunity to fit chains to your own vehicle, with guidance and support from experienced helpers. If you already own a set of chains, please bring them along so you can practice with the equipment you'll be using on the mountain. If you're looking to purchase chains, the team at Bright Chalet can help you select the correct size for your vehicle. Whether you're completely new to alpine driving or simply looking for a refresher, this workshop is a great way to build confidence before the winter season.   A big thank you to Bright Chalet for generously hosting this event. Participants attending on the night will also receive:   • 10% off new retail items • An additional 10% off already discounted items • 10% off servicing   Come along and gain the confidence to enjoy all that the snow season has to offer.   This event is part of our Micro Skills series which run on the 3rd Thursday of each month.
