Came upon this after a storm on my way home one day:





After an overnight storm left twigs and branches on the trail, this is what happened to the fork on the bike my son was riding when one of the twigs got caught in the wheel:



He still has a scar on his shoulder.


By comparison a little snow can seem pretty harmless.


You will be happy to know that the bike has lived on with a new fork and a new identity as a fixie though it will never be as pretty again.
