In the "too hilarious to ignore" category. I got soaking wet from ground water while out riding the Hillborne with the incredibly long, full coverage SKS Longboard fenders.
Look at the coverage those provide!
You'd have to run over a geyser to get wet without rain!
I found a way to do it.
I was out riding on a local MUP which has a little side path I had never explored.
Referred to as "Bishop's Bog," it's a marshy area preserved for nature walks and wildlife observation.
It has a nice composite board walkway to keep traffic controlled and isolate the wear on the habitat.
I thought nothing of rolling out there for a casual ride through to see the sights.
100 yards into the bog and my shoes, legs and pants were soaking wet!
I turned to see that the boards had drainage holes milled into them,
which created hundreds of little squirt guns to shoot up under the weight of me and the bike.
Fortunately, it was hot and perfectly cooling and pleasant, but the last thing I expected.
