#mudguard

The recent stormy weather has caused many #trees to shed large twigs and even whole branches onto the ground and in particular paths. Today a large twig, about 15 cm long and 1 cm in diameter wedged into the #spokes of the rear#wheel of my #bicycle, causing it to jam completely. Luckily, I wasn’t going too fast and so was able to stop safely but it caught the #mudguard and bent it double. Though I managed to untangle it, I may have to replace it. Ho hum.

I bought some new #Fenders for my #Bike, but disaster struck while I was securing one of the posts to my frame— the screw broke!

I'd prefer to not drill it out if I can help it, but I'll use the drill as a last resort.

Maybe chiseling a slot into one end and screwing it back out?

This was my big #Fail yesterday. If I can't get it, I'll bring it over to a local bike shop to see if they can get it out.

A broken screw with blue Loctite is visible in an eyelet near the wheel of a yellow bicycle.An unopened package of Planet Bike Hardcore Fenders is visible in front of the frame of a yellow bicycle (with wheels removed) and a socket/wrench set in the background.

Heute wird ein #Mudguard geliefert. Ich hoffe das funktioniert auch an meinem #Gravelbike und nicht nur an einem #MTB #fahrrad
