How to learn about bikes?

[R.C.Anderson]

Ok, so I've always been quite keen on bikes (although never actually ridden one) & I'm going to try to do my CBT fairly soon. Only thing is, I don't really know anything (technical) about them.

Is there a good website/youtube channel etc that is good for starters? Initially I only really want to learn about what's needed to look after them/care for them.

So, any suggestions?

All sounds like sound advice, cheers guys Currently reading through the website lollyhayes posted, some interesting stuff...

Are bikes actually as fussy to start as that website makes out, or is it just covering every scenario?

Good to know... It would most likely get on my nerves pretty quick if it was like that every time.
