Similar to Artkansas, I stored a heavy gauge folded newspaper (one that doesn't easily bend), under the bungie cord of my rear rack. In rain or slush conditions, I'd pull back the paper to as far back on the rack as it would go, while still being held in place by the bungie. The "extra tail length" worked pretty well in preventing getting a wet stripe down my back.
