Fenders will not protect you from getting wet in the rain, no matter where you live. They do prevent road schmutz (and excess water in shorter rides in non-monsoon conditions) from being deposited all over your shoes, the bottom portion of your legs, your back, your drivetrain, and any pals that might be riding behind you. Also, in the age of bikeflights, who is to say your machine will spend its whole life in the Sunshine State <https://youtu.be/cGa3zFRqDn4>?
