As the title says, I have been losing about 1/2 psi a day for a couple weeks and just kept refilling since I haven't had time to rotate the tires. Just did find the culprit last night and rotated this morning. I'm not sure why I have a leak the way I do and am turning to the experts for opinions.
I assume it has something to do with airing down to 17 psi at Gulches. What is the likely reason and what action should I take? Getting new tires in the next couple months, anyway, but I still would like to know that I have a usable spare and not have to pump it up if it's needed. Is it as simple as unseating it and having it remounted? I assume I just got some dirt/mud in the bead while aired down. I know I can't be the first one to have this happen. Surely 17 psi wasn't too low.

The white chalk line shows where the leak is. Used soapy water to find it.
