I mostly get around by bicycle when covering stories, but whenever I need to pump up my tires, I have to go to a bike shop.
Since I need to add air pretty often, it can be a bit of a hassle.
But the other day, I found a Lawson in Koshien with a bicycle air pump installed.
It’s “Lawson Nishinomiya Minami-Koshien,” located at the intersection of Nakatsuhama Line and Rinko Line.
It’s set up in one corner of the parking lot.
It says “Air Station” on it.
There are instructions on how to use it, too.
Since I was there, I decided to try pumping up my tires.
Attach it like this…
Then just press this button!
Air keeps coming out while you hold the button down.
Since it’s automatic, it’s easy and convenient to fill your tires.
Having an air pump at a convenience store is really helpful for cyclists.
