I rode both last spring on 42mm Continental Tour Rides. Felt great at the time, and I really appreciated the bit of tread on the muddy C&O :) If/when I ride them again, I'd naturally ride something a bit wider probably. I'm thinking the Big Bens would be the perfect compromise. Duremes or something similar would be nice for the C&O section, but not necessary on the GAP. I'm getting to where I like fatter comfier tires all the time now. Saying that I also wouldn't hesitate to ride the Big Apples on both trails either. Either way you can't go wrong, but you might be wanting a bit more tread in some sections of the C&O.
