A useful tip from the Michelin Tire Company:

Here is a recommended air pressure guide for Michelin Tires. For more tire information, visit http://www.MichelinBicycle.com

For 700x23c Michelin Tire Size:

Your Weight / Tire Pressure
110 lbs / 87 psi
120 lbs / 90 psi
130 lbs / 94 psi
140 lbs / 100 psi
150 lbs / 105 psi
160 lbs / 109 psi
170 lbs / 113 psi
180 lbs / 116 psi

For riders above 180 lbs, inflate to maximum pressure indicator on the side wall, and for riders below 110 lbs, inflate to the minimum pressure.

With other tire brands, check the sidewall of your tire for recommended tire pressure.
