Thanks, I thought about the bicycle angle, but haven't been able to find a pump with a no-leak Schraeder valve that will let you remove it without loosing pressure. The other problem is that air tends to heat up as you ride and you get an increase in pressure within the shock (nitrogen is more resistant and also is free of oxygen and the rust problems that are inherent to oxygen).
I like to ride at Zars Ranch, VP, and up at RPMX in Bastrop, but this has been a year of chemotherapy (skin cancer) and I haven't been on my bikes since April.:( Looking forward to the winter time when I am done with treatment and have enough energy to load my bikes and go putt-putt. Should be hell on wheels after this layoff!:p
