Last month or so Wal-Mart started keeping chain lube, inner tubes and
tires in a locked cabinet like they do ammo.

It's too much trouble to ask for help wearing a mask so don't bother.

Are you making a point about UK cycling?

Are tires lubes and tubes still out on display in big box stores in the
UK? This CV-19 bike boom is starting to become a hassle in the desert
SW. I have to go to Yuma to get anything in a hurry.

I've dedicated my life to making cycling cheaper and now market forces
are making it more expensive.

This is _not_ progress!

How do I find the nearest Wal-Mart?


Go into an ASDA.


Asda is not Wal-Mart. For a start it does not supply ammo, as described by
Bret.
