42mm is still a great sizes and I never find myself wanting bigger on the road.
However, on the tourer, I'm going for the bigger tyres for obvious reason (lower pressure with moderate load), and big enough to ride comfortable on gravel and towpath.
42mm is great on towpath already, but it's better on even bigger sizes.
Bit gutted I didn't give a bit more clearance in my frame to take a ~50mm tyre like that one @edscoble - saw it pop up on Instagram the other day.
Although saying that 42mm are running well!
