Pump up your tires!
Do you know what is irritating? A flat tire. Do you know how to repair it? A tyre pump! Well sort of. By maintaining the exact tire pressure in your tires, you can avoid uneven wear on your tires which will keep your tires in outstanding shape and prevent flats.
A tire with low tire pressure, either on a bike or a car, can also cause harms with fuel effectiveness. If tires are unfittingly inflated, your MPG will decrease because your tires are less round and will need more energy to move the vehicle. A good tire pump, either a manual pump or electric, will help you keep your tires inflated.
Did you know that most gas stations require a fee to pump your tires up? Last week I drove around the city and most gas stations were charging .75 cents for air. I thought this was amazing.
It is wise to check your tire pressure on a monthly basis. If your car is still under going routine maintenance, your dealer will probably inflate your tires to the required pressures. If it is not, you should be looking at your tires monthly and go by the PSI values on your door jam. It is alright if you go over the recommended PSI, but be careful of going over the maximum rated pressure for the tire, which is listed as MAX PSI on your tire.
The same holds true for bicycle tires, which you will be using a bicycle tyre pump. You can also use a 12v tire pump
