hippy
I don't ride as far as you, but I don't ride anything less than 45s now. Bit extreme maybe, but the lanes around here are so bad that it's the only way to keep a bit of comfort.
I see so many people on 23s still I genuinely am impressed they're still going.
Having said that I did a ride around Oxfordshire recently and part of it was along the new HS2 works (which I thought was cancelled?) and there was miles and miles of lovely fresh tarmac, albeit with these very 'european' bridges over the Trainline that just rise out of nowhere and are very windy.
