When I raced on tubulars they were inflated to 140-150 psi.

Far be it for me to suggest to the Pope how to inflate his tires. But for clinchers at 23mm width and your current weight, you might want to try dropping your pressure to about 100F and 105R. I think you will like the ride.

I've been working way too hard for the last couple of days. I'm going to go riding tomorrow. Or I might just post more crap here.

How do you know what the real tyre pressure is? If I pump to 110 and then remove the nozzle and get that air rush sound, how do I know if I still hav 110 in the tyre. Just like when I close the fridge, how do I know if the light remains on or off?

You knucklehead. The air rushes out of the hose, not the tyre. If you pump it up to 110 and then remove the nozzle, it's 110.

Better: weather discussion. We have a 90% certainty of an ice storm tomorrow.
I'm not.

Who told you that? I bet that's an urban myth.

Looks downright frosty out east, but we are in the 40's this morning at 4:00 a.m. It's like whenever the weather changes, there has to be more to it than Mother Nature just doing her thing 99% of the time.
I am told spring will be here soon.
