Here's a pretty interesting article discussing Le Tour slowly getting wider and wider tires, compared to a decade ago [1]. Granted their use case is going to be at a very different scale than most rec/serious non-pro riders. But I know that most all my friends and I ride 28s on our road bikes these days compared to 23s a long time ago. More comfort and more forgiving. My current road bike maxes out at 28, but I'd probably go a little wider if I could due to the nature of the roads around here (lots of potholes, chunks, crappy shoulders, etc...)
