LOL, What a dumb@ss! Looks like even the lawyer lips didnt prevent that from happening.

Sorry OP if that was you but I have no sympathy for those who can't even do a cursory once over on the bike before setting off an a ride.

This is why, when we start something, we complete it to 100% before moving on. ie - When you slide your fork onto your front wheel, clamp it down before you do anything else

Strange enough, I had logged 10 miles in the desert that day before it decided to loosen up.
