^ there are plenty of clincher choices in 28mm. Durability should take precedence over weight / suppleness.
The rock/gravel tend to be rough in this neck of the woods. At your weight, I'd pump them up hard to avoid pinch flats but keep in mind, this increases the risk to cut sidewalls.
Bring tire boot material, extra tubes (at least 2) and a patch kit. Some folks pack an extra tire. You will likely get at least one flat over the weekend.
Carrying the extras will come in handy even if you don't need 'em... you can be someone else's hero in a pinch :-)

I’d take a serious look at Panaracer GK 32’s. On older narrow (but with hooks) rims, they’ll wind up somewhere around 30-31mm.
Vittoria Graphene 30’s are another possibility but not sure they would be tough enough for Cino gravel.

I'm still considering this. All you pro's at it, talk to me about tires for the Opus. 700 x 30 true size will fit for sure. What would you run? I'm finding limited options when not going larger than 30mm. These will be old rims also so not running tubeless. I'm riding at around 185 lbs right now.
another would be the Vittoria Corsa Control clincher in 30mm I have a 30mm Vitorria corsa control tubular on my non cino team miyata so if you have a tubular wheel set that might be an option also.
the corsa controls are positioned as the pave replacment and are supposed to be a little tougher than than the corsa g
I am aiming at a cino weight of 230 to 235 (242.2 today) so will be pumping up most anything i ride

that bike is interesting. There was a fellow out of Hawaii selling on LA Craigslist a Cinelli that looked original paint but had waterbottle and shifter bosses like this bike. The waterbottle points with the stress relievers were not seen before by me, this makes the second bike I have seen with, so indeed set that to the original file.
my approx ‘71 only has brazed on bottom bracket and chainstay guides.
don’t like clamp on waterbottle cages.

I'll be bringing the 1961 Allegro.
Like me, it's old and scarred but we both cherish our visions of grandeur. I'm hoping for a top five finish in the "age-plus-gear inches" metric, more appropriately known as the "foolishness factor."
You will note from the photo I have yet to find the right vintage-look water bottle or some appropriate Weinmann brake lever hoods. Anyone able to help me out here?

Based on observations I've made at Eroica and the information on this timeline Velo-Retro: Cinelli Timeline, 1974 is the first year with water bottle braze-ons. Note that I am confident in the age of this bike since it was given to me by the original owner who bought it in Naples, Italy.

I’ll be taking 2 bikes to Cino this year.
Not quite as Heroic as some of the other bikes I've used at Cino in the past, I’ll put rat traps on to satisfy the spirit of Cino and ride the Holland.

Make sure you put the corncob on the Singer for Scott!
Not that he’d notice…

So here's our chariot for Cino, minus bottle cages. I did tight chainring bolts. New tires, tape, changed out freewheel, & some polishing. Fortunately, I checked crank arm bolts. Three out of four were not tight...

First Cino 84 Team version 001
Did my changes to give me a chance to minimize walking and be cino, replaced 53/39 durace crankset with 52/42/30 105...wish it were silver but it works, deraillers replaced with rx100 not fancy but look good and work well. Put the original KKT Proace pedals on with leather straps and clips. my plan to give me even more low with a 32 cog low was thwarted (for now) because I could not get the first (lock ring) cog off the cassette..figured it was karma telling me. don't push it too much, finish the build and get riding
Took it out for a shake down ride. bike still rides like a dream. Getting back used to clips and straps and getting things fine tuned is going to take a bit. Shifting is smooth and no problems, just have play and get the best combos figured out. Am thinking that I might need to swap out the flyte titanium for a brooks swift.. Will be changing the seat bag to a jannd tubular bag for more capacity. Will add adding a road runner burrito surpreme to carry my OM-1 and lots of Tri-X going Cino camera also. probably will add another water bottle that works with no bosses, What is fun is that my normal lunch loop has some gravel options so I will get some gravel practice in also
now to get my tail in gear and more training

I rode several of my bikes while preparing for Cino. The Stella in post 22 was planned for Cino 2021, but some some other options were tried. The Vitus 979 was a possibility and did OK on gravel until the county put fresh gravel on one of my routes. 26c tires at any speed are scary in deeper gravel! The Centurion Pro Tour is my other favorite. So I plan to ride the Centurion Pro Tour Saturday because it has a tall stem, the best brakes, and fat tires. I'll leave my Stella at Symes for Sunday because of its super low(19.72 ") for 9 mile hill. Both bikes now sport a well broken in Brooks saddle for maximum comfort. Don Edit, this pic is with the original stem, You'll need to check my tall Nitto out Saturday
Saturday Cino Rig: Tall Stem, Cantilever Brakes, Fat Tires
