Like is it sudden, or a slow leak?
First thing I'd do is run my hand around the _inside_ of the tire feeling for a piece of glass, or something, that might have embedded itself deep into the tire tread. Also I'd take a good look at the rim strip running around the rim that covers the spoke holes making sure it's doing just that.
With your weight (and I'm not far behind you) you need to be especially careful to get off your butt on the bumpy sections and distribute your weight fore and aft. Also make sure you're (the tires, that is) inflated to the recommended tire pressure.

(Also, carry a spare!)
