Have an uplift booked next week and wondered how its running currently?

I've only ridden it before during the winter mini-DH events when its slippery and sloppy.

Rain is expected this weekend but is it currently so dry that a spot of rain will make bugger all difference...or actually improve things.

Currently have a Magic Mary on the front but can swap to a Minion or High Roller in the same size/compounds if needed....rear doesnt matter, its a hardtail so does its own thing anyway while i desperately try to keep my feet on the pedals!

Currently all very fast and dry (and dusty). Unless it rains lots conditions should be good. That's what I'm hoping as it's my local!
