OP, I think last year's Farmer's Daughter was an anamoly. We had torrential rain for a couple of days before. It rendered some of the trail sections unrideable as they turned to knee deep, pudding consistency mud.
I brought my mountain bike and still had trouble with those sections.
I generally ride upstate NY dirt roads on 700X35 Conti Cyclocross Speed and they are more than adequate. If FD is not a mud bath this coming year I expect those tires to be just right.
