Yesterday- the bike repair stand @ W&OD & Columbia pike. The “unbreakable tire pump” was found broken, with a replacement floor pump chained to it. Schraeder valve only. While I was documenting this, another cyclist came up needing air. He ran Presta.

I always keep something like this with all of my bikes: https://www.amazon.com/Bike-Bits-Brass-Presta-Adapter/dp/B07DN2MTKQ

While I was documenting this, another cyclist came up needing air. He ran Presta. On the one day I didn’t bring my hand pump. I tried to direct him up the hill to Phoenix Bikes, but he demurred.

Who do we report this to again?

I seem to recall that Arlington built this park so it should be a 311 request.

There are replacement seals for these pumps that are supposed to be replaced yearly.

I’d say this pump’s issues go beyond “seals.”

OK folks, I reported this to Arlington County on the website.
