General Discussion / Skinny tires on gravel?

« on: April 20, 2022, 07:55:11 pm »

What has been your experience, if any, riding skinny tires (say 25’s) with no heavy load on gravel? I want to try some gravel rides, but do not want to buy a gravel bike just yet.  Is it a waste time, like no fun at all, to try modest rides under (40 miles) with an unadulterated road bike on a gravel trail such as the Palouse to Cascade trail in WA? In other words, is it just stupid to try?
