I think you'd probably just burst into flames.

No. Your legs would not get wet if you were in a vacuum. You see it is like throwing a ball while in a moving car. The speed of the car is added to the velocity of the ball as it exits your hand. So say you threw it 10mph while driving 50mph, the total velocity would be about 60mph. That is until the resistance of the air slowed it down. However in a vacuum you would not have that resistance, thus the pee would pass the speed of light.
However that can't happen

Yes, your legs will get wet but perhaps not in the way you are thinking!!!
Theoretically, as you approach the speed of light, your mass approaches infinity. So, if you are traveling at the speed of light, the mass of your fly is infinite. Therefore, you will not be able to unzip, and you will pee your pants. Not only getting your legs wet, but the rest of your lower body!!!

The remarkable answer to this question is:
It depends on whose watching!
First, assume you are in a vacuum doing this (as long as we are assuming impossible things, this is no problem). Also assume that you are ejecting a stream straight ahead. Even travelling at the speed of light YOU would see the stream jet out in front of you as if you were standing still (Einstein principle of relativity -> you can't detect uniform motion at any speed.)
HOWEVER, if somebody at rest (with respect to you) watched you do this, your stream would never leave your body. He can't see anything move faster than light, You are moving at light speed; even though you are ejecting your urine, he cannot see it moving faster than you. So it stays with you and gets you all wet!

If you're travelling at the speed of light you would be pure energy and everything would pass through you. Water would not be able to adhere to you - you could not get wet.

Actually, and assuming that you were not vaporized by stepping outside on a train traveling at the speed of light, your urine stream would probably just be forced right back into you. Imagine that: being catheterized at the speed of light. That's gonna burn. lol

Oh you'll get wet with all the body fluids being squeezrd out of you as you're smashed like a pancake onto the train.

the whizz would probably go right back into your pee hole; no whizz in it's right mind would jump off a train giong the speed of light...come on man.

At the speed of light, you would not be able to get your penis out of your pants to wiz. So yes your legs get wet.

No, your legs would never get wet because you would not age even a split second. Every thing would be motionless. Your wizz would be in mid-air not very far from its source.

Yes with blood! Your atoms would split before you reached the target speed. And you would become a moving mass of gruel.
