I rode last year on 72 GI and never had to walk it, although it was tough at times. The skinny tires helped cut through the snow though:
I think 30 GI seems silly small to me, then again I have no hills to deal with. I am shooting for 55 this winter which will be 16mph @ 100 rpm, should be perfect.
