You don't. Mines been ridden unprotected in mud over the two years and is still fine.
If you are worried I'd suggest a bit of cleaned up old inner tube slipped over from the bottom of the post and zip-tied in place. You'll need to allow air in and out somehow so it can breathe or it won't re-extend.
Lovely bike.
