Question Do I still need?

Do I still need to put winter air in my tires if it is 70F outside? I mean, it is still January and it gets down to 43F at night. So I was wondering if I had to change to winter air or if the summer air would still work?

Of course you have to change. If you want's the maximum performance out of your bike you actually do have to change the air in your tires every season. Spring, summer, autumn and of course in winter.
Don't forget to change if you travel from an asphalt road over to a concrete or gravel road. Important, important, important......

Summer air will be ok if stored properly.

You need to mix just small amount of winter air with summer air to refresh your tires. I can ship you a jar of Ohio winter air for $20 plus shipping. I think that's a good deal.
