If we’re forced to bring objectivity into it then surface is going to be the biggest consideration. From highest to lowest prevalence;
Essex Roads: 30c GP5000’s
Wet mud: 33c cross tyres “just cut through the mud”. If your route curator (read: Gio) has put lots of sections with wet roots in then maybe have a think about 35’s or 38’s
Dry mud: higher volume slicks with some knobs on the shoulder for dusty corners
Gravel: no available data
