She should have asked me, I always throw my extra change in one of my pannier pockets, and when I happen to decide to exchange it for paper bills it's usually ranges between 7 to 10 dollars worth.

Everyone knows you shouldn't give change to strangers. Haven't you seen that south park episode? Joking of course, I'm always happy to give some spare change to someone if they ask nicely(not while I'm riding my bike though, wtf...). Now the delusional old man who yells insults at me, he gets no change, ever.

You should have been like, "Yeah, I do." And then just keep riding.

Don't feed the motorists. They could end up following you home.

I sure hope you don't have a cell phone. With that logic.

One auto parking space holds 14 bicycles. The light rail has free parking
