Oof yeah 26mm would not be fun I was thinking going wider... maybe some kinda crazy slick 29er tire, or maaaybe narrower for speed but I'm wondering if that's likely to help enough to make it worth it. Some of the roads are likely to be washed out pretty badly given the rain we've been getting up here lately. But really I should be more worried about the engine.
