It's a fact of life. Sometimes, your mount's durability goes down, and you have to go to the stable and get the NPC to fix it.
My mount is very reliable, but its scheduled maintenance check came up a bit ago, and I had to sacrifice the gold needed to have those NPCs look at it. Unfortunately, it still needs some work. The tires are wearing thin, and we need to go buy some more... If only those mounts didn't eat up so much gold!
But they do. That's why, in games, I usually don't bother. I just walk everywhere, or use teleport (Huh. "Teleport" isn't in my browser's spell check. Interesting.) scrolls that I get from random drops.
Unfortunately, with the distance I have to cover most days, walking is impractical, and there are no scrolls that will 'port me there. I have a somewhat slower, 2-wheel mount, but it's got a flat right now, and besides, sometimes I need the extra storage that my regular mount offers. I have yet to find a bag with enough "hammerspace" to not need my mount.
