I'll be serious first: what FBinNY said. (that's a period) and not to minimize any other previous posts of course. You will get a lot of opinions, but especially with tire pressure there are way to many variables and you are already in the ball park. With you years of riding you must have tweaked the inflation pressure of your tires a bazillion times until they felt just right for the terrain and your style. In my case I went from road bikes directly to mtb on snow - now there was an extreme example of tire pressure education. On the snow my 2.3's felt good at very low pressure, as soon as I hit the parking lot I thought I would destroy the tires from being so ... flat.

Now to your quoted comment: kinda thinking the forums are for educational feedback from other members, useless attempts at helping, self-entertaining responses to your posts, some fishing to see what kind of smart responses we can get, and a little fun trolling.

Ya, you did walk into that one from AnkleWork.
