Definitely the wider tire, 4606 is very soft and wash-boarded this time
of year.

Every revolutionary idea seems to evoke three stages of reaction...
One, it's completely impossible.
Two, it's possible, but it's not worth doing.
Three, I said it was a good idea all along.

Thinking of riding the Brooks-Scanlon logging road between Sisters and
Bend. Looking for input on tire choice - will be on my SSCX. The road
looks fairly tame with packed dirt / gravel(??). 28c commuter tire or 32c
to 35c CX tire.

Also seeking input on the Deschutes River Trail from Bend to Sunriver -
looks like non-issue for CX bike(??).

Then from Sunriver to Wickiup Reservoir - use NF-44(??)

Thanks,
