Eroica CA gravel ride - 650b or 700c?

Hey gang,

I'm riding the Nova Eroica California short route in a few weeks... https://eroica.cc/en/nova-california...ca-short-route

It's mix of pavement and gravel for 72 miles (56 miles are gravel). All things being equal, would you ride your 650b x 2.1" wheels/tires or your 700c x 40 wheels/tires? I'm thinking I'll take the 700c wheelset since there doesn't seem to be anything too gnarly. But those 2.1 inch tires would sure feel nice and plush for 72 miles... What does the collective wisdom of BF think? Thanks in advance...
