Obviously, I'm living in another world and out of the loop. Since I have a compressor at home, I never give a thought to putting air in a tire at a gas station. This morning I'm on my bike ride and I knew right away that the front tire was slightly down in air but I figured it'd be OK for the ride. About a mile from home I passed a service station and thought I'd top it up. Not so fast buddy, a coin-operated air dispenser, not sure how much $$ ...... maybe a loonie ($1) or some quarters? No money with me so on to the next place (where I usually buy gas) ..... same thing. Third station closer to home, air for money again. So by that time things were getting a bit worse and so I walked it home. So tell me, is that the norm now at most gas stations? I suspect some little independant places might have free air but these were all bigger chains. I'm going to talk to the guy who runs the place I buy all my gas and see what he has to say. I guess I'll hear something like .... "Too bad, so sad!"
