I would ride the biggest Schwalbe Marathon's you can. I currently run 700C x 38, but I think your C-dale will probably only take up to 28s? In either case, I've done some "accidental" test runs, and they're pretty good (as long as you stay on the tread--the sidewalls don't corner too well on wet cobblestones :)
