Tyre pressure at altitude

[CuzGS]

Come to think of it I didn't wear socks in bed and indeed this was where my dangle berries first made an appearance, incontevertable proof of the relationship between no socks, Norfolk and farmer giles making a guest appearance

Nowt ever chages in Norfolk

Nor people their socks.

I don't think you are quite right there, when I was last there they didn't wear any

I heard Colmans are giving such things away with every bottle of mustard

I am in Norfolk this weekend, will I be safe with or without socks?

After spending all weekend in Norfolk wearing socks (except in bed) I returned home safely, therefore I conclude that it is best to wear socks when visiting Norfolk.

I once got piles whilst in Norfolk and was wearing socks at the time thus proving it would have been better not to surely

Did you forget your underpants? I wore mine (except in bed) and I didn't get piles therefore proving that one must also wear underpants in Norfolk

You are all, quite simply, going to hell! [flounces off]

Aircraft tyres are filled with dry nitrogen to minimise the change in pressures as well .

Bollox. Nitrogen will not make any difference to pressure change. Gas laws are independent of the gas involved. Aircraft tyres are filled with DRY nitrogen to prevent corrosion.

you could also do this on the bike.

Oh dear God

Oh dear God

Ok ,didn't want to get too technical , lets just say one of the reasons for nitrogen in a tyre is that is reacts LESS than Oxygen to temp and pressure changes , along of course with the obvious corrosion benefits and the fact that it is not as combustable as oxygen ,
Look , all I'm saying is that putting nitrogen in your tyres would lessen the effect of altitude , which it would . I know because i have done it .

Gas laws only actually work for an "Ideal Gas". All real gases vary in their response to pressure and temperature changes.

Oh dear God

Quite.
