I had fenders and yes they were caked with mud, had to occasionally clear them. I rode 110 miles on the first day of the tour. It was about 58 from my house in Bmore to DC. I planned on only going 26 miles up the trail to the first HB but wanted to get past the mud. Glad to hear i wasn't over reacting to the conditions.
As for the biker planning a trip in September, should be dry by then as mid summer tends to get very dry here with occasional thunderstorms.
