I hate losing things! Last fall I lost my faithful crank bros bike tool and subsequently spent hours looking for it! All to no avail until today when it poked out of the receding snow in my back yard. It's a little worse for wear but should clean up just fine. The only benefit to its temporary absence was a lovely Xmas gift from my son of a Lezyne Carbon 5. Doesn't hurt to have 2 anyway

Anyone else have bike gear go walkabout but return unexpectedly?

That's amazing grace!

Looks just like one I found at a stop sign a while back. Oxalic acid ftw.

Looks exactly like the one that lives in my handlebar bag, they seem to attract that orange stuff. I should have spent the extra five bucks for the undercoating.
