That takes too much time. Many times when I stop for gas, I don't even take my helmet off. Swipe the plastic, pump 2.5 gallons, and on the road again.

It's called Coinstar my friend LOL! I went to one last week and got like $20 cash and it felt good, but I try not to pay with all change unless it''s $2.00 or under. I just don't like to be that guy.

I'm a plastic user as well. However I mainly use it so that I can track how much I spend on gas for the bike(s) verses my truck. And it lets me know how many gallons I use over the year which in turn lets me calculate my yearly mpg.

Haven't had to use all change for the bike yet, but I had a Camaro once. I ran out of gas and coasted in the gas station. Had about 30-40 cent in the back floorbaord and no cash on me. It was enufff to get me home.
