I think the rain will not be such a big effect as making sure your bike is safely out of the way.
The rockier and gravelled tracks handle rain quite well, but after such a long dry spell we shall see!.
This week's rain will make most of the track work easier by softening the dirt.
It also means any track work will pack down much faster.
Sunday is looking to be a pretty dry day too

Why would you want to take rocks and ruts OUT?

Nope, it applies to anybody
However what gets done on each track is a combination of
-experience of how a track degrades over time
-how many people turn up
-a consensus of what needs to be done
cheers!

No Shayne, perhaps a XXL is more my size.
