Until this problem of whimpus tire pumping was mentioned, I admit I was too embarrassed to even mention it here on TE board.
When my partner was living in Calgary for 2 yrs., and I in Toronto, I had the joy of pumping my tires with my small hand pump for that time. But they did get inflated after...uh half hr.
We have a red happy floor pump...he pumps all our bike tires. I tried and am so discouraged/embarrassed that my upper body strength is crappy. I'm 5'1" at now 97 lbs. (I've lost weight from much cycling now.) and have not tried any floor pushups.
Oh well, at least I know a hand pump works for me if I'm not in a hurry. Or I can go 1 block down to LBS to inflate my tires.
No, I don't have the extra money to buy CO cartridges. It's just me..cheap.
