Check those pressures folks!

Checked pressures today and they were up from 34/37 front and rear to 38/42. Can only be down to the hotter weather since last week. Ended up letting them back down to 34/37 and going to check them in the morning again... just remember that if you find they're down on grip (which may be harder to spot with the higher temps offering improved grip anyway)

apart from you and me, everyone else thinks that 42 is the correct pressure for the rear tyre anyway

Pressures are supose to be measured cold, once you warm the tires up, the pressures will change, it's normal, sometimes you have to let the tire cool quite a while till the pressures drop back to normal

That depends on which make and model of tyre is being discussed, also personal preference.

I'm assuming here, but I would think that SVeeedy Gonzales means that the pressures have increased due to the "standing" heat, rather than having just been for a ride. It's a bit like your engine temp will show an instant reading in the hot summer weather, but during winter it can take a minute to read even the lowest temp.
