I’m in Boston. FWIW I bought a bike for gravel to mess around with when we head up to MDI — eg pretty groomed gravel. It made a huge difference on the road up there to have slick tires. These were fine on carriage roads but I suspect would be problematic for anything more serious. I’d say I lose about 1 mph on the roads vs one of my road bikes vs 2-3 when I had knobbier tires on.
