Out riding today and notice a rattling noise. Bike was silent last time I rode it so wtf? Derailleur? Nup. Cranks / chainring? Nup. Chainguide? Nah. Brake pads? Nein. Eventually work out it's coming from the front of the bike. Aha! I will solve this now. Pinch bolt on forks. No. Loose brake disc. Noooo. Loose axle. NO. FFS I'm just gonna ignore it.

Get back to the car, flip the bike upside down to take the front wheel out and the dust cap covering the rebound adjust on the forks is loose af.......

Little confession here. Joined the 5er ride in Sydney on Wednesday, been a killer day at work. Pulled the bike from the boot, chickweed the front wheel on.

Phew, actually remembered to bring the helmet, pads and shoes this time!

Jump on and go to take off, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT RACKET...

Thankfully nothing broken, but could have been close!
