No, it’s east vs west.probably due to different soil composition. Riding or even walking on muddy trails causes ruts which dry out and lead to trail damage. Its taken quite seriously here. People will get very mad if you ride on muddy trails. they are legally closed. the rule is if you leave a foot print or a tire trail, they are too soft. there are trail status pages that post up the open and closed trails.

The only soil that dries immediately after a thunderstorm is sand. Everything else, takes hours to dry off.Well..it depends..it rains..but also the soil is usually either clay, organic goop over rock or muskeg. the sandy places are nice but not often found. it's not so bad when it all dries out in july/august..until a thunderstorm makes it muck again..
Or have really short legsare your seats down or do you ride with the bars that high?
I don’t bother keepIng my bike clean. But if it creaks... it drives me nuts!

A gentle reminder, it’s so green and lush in the east because it rains every other day! So if you wait for the trail to dry, you never get to ride much! Maybe 3 time a year?
Only exception is spring time. Trails are CLOSED till the melting snow drained away. But after that, it’s fair game!
‘Round here being Westchester?Policy "round here" is don't ride the trails for 24 hours after rain. Some places drain and dry faster and we have been known to stretch that rule. Mostly though we stay off for a day. Trails 'round here always have some muddy spots and usually some stream crossings anyway.
Oh and my bikes get washed maybe once a year...about as often as I tune my skis.
