[RBW] Big Apples for GAP and CO tour

2013-02-17 Thread shawn
I am doing the GAP and CO from Pittsburgh to Washington D.C. in May and 
was wondering what the opinion was of using 50mm Big Apples for this ride.
Thanks in advance.

i used 700x38mm tires on the C/O and they were fine. the gap is much smoother 
than the C/O

[RBW] Big Apples for GAP and CO tour

2013-02-17 Thread dan gee
The GAP is nice and smooth crushed limestone - depending on the wetness, super 
big tires might make for slow going. If speed is no worry, you'll definitely 
appreciate extra volume on the CO. I would personally go for a tire in the mid 
to high 30s, width wise, but YMMV.

 I used Hetres (42's) on my GAP/CO ride and was very happy with the ride on 
both trails.  As others have said, the surfaces are not at all the same.  You 
could use much skinnier tires for the GAP.  When I left the GAP,and rode onto 
the CO, it had rained the previous day and the CO was pretty messy and 
rutted.  The Hetres were much appreciated for the next couple of days (the 
final day, the trail had pretty much dried out.
