If I'm going to go past 32mm,I much prefer to run 26" wheels.
This isn't the Tour de France we're talking about though. I like having wheels with enough momentum that bumps and rocks aren't stopping them. As far as getting them up to speed - stand and mash for 2-3 pedal strokes and you're there. No big deal.
