Nice!
When I was living in VA I would do a ton of gravel riding including Jeremiah Bishop's Alpine Loop Gran Fondo. That was the ride that sold me on tubeless since I could run lower pressures on the gravel climbs and worry less about traction loss (there were some areas where if you stopped you would have to walk the bike until finding a suitable place to remount due to steepness and gravel). Plus flat resistance of course, some areas of the ride were basically like rock gardens. I never went beyond 25mm though. Are the larger widths simply more comfortable or is it traction related as well?
