The City’s Best Tire Pump
Here’s some useful information that isn’t “newsworthy” enough to get
into the paper, but perfect for a local blog like mine: the tire pump
at the Petro-Canada at the corner of Bloor and Keele Streets
is the best damned gas station tire pump I’ve encountered in the city!
In less than a literal handful of seconds, it brought a flabby bike
tire inflated at 20 PSI to the recommended 65.
If you decide to use this pump, keep an eye on the tire gauge. This
thing’s on overdrive, and the last thing you want to do is blow out
your inner tube.

:) 60 PSI is a bit much for the average tire. You should reduce the pressure a bit.
