Default Rust on chain

OK, so New England has been getting a bit of rain the past...few...weeks....

My bike has some rust on the chain. Should I brush it off, literally, or just spray it with some lube?

Same for a few spots on my rotors. Do I just let the pads grind it off?

Thanks,
Mike

when i go to clean my chain i sometimes see a few rusty spots. it usually brushes right off. so to answer your question - clean & then lube.

Clean then lube the chain, the rust will come off fine from the rotors when it`s ridden.
