RE:, slack in the tie downs. I've put a stop to that by running a bungee between the eye-hooks at each end of the tie down. So the strap is under constant tension.

URBAN fork lore:
Tying your bike down over night or all week does not cause seal problems. The pressure inside a fork actually increases its tendency to seal. If you have a leak after doing this it’s from an imperfection (damage already done) and the extra internal pressure is just helping push oil out.
Bleeding your forks is a good idea for good performance, but has little to do with the seal’s life. If you fail to do this and notice a leak, it’s from the same root cause as the bike being tided down myth of above.
