"I don't doubt that you have lost some pressure from sitting, but not from a temperature change...as it gets colder, the pressure goes up, not down. Air expands when heated and contracts when cooled...at least that's what it does in airplane tires!"

Sorry!! You guys are correct...wrote the first part backwards, got it right in the second part...hot expands. Guess my brain was behind my typing hands.

I aired them back to 80 psi while it was cold so when we're ready to head out a week from today I'll see if they've retained the pressure. It will have been two weeks since bringing them back to 80. If they've dropped I'll know to keep a close eye on them for awhile to see if there is a problem. I know some have had problems with the valve stems and I need to jockey those around a bit to see if we have any leaks, also.
