In July, I went two weeks with the brake quick release open.

Three weeks ago, I'm riding up a 10% grade on rough pavement. As I'm huffing and puffing, I look down to see that my front quick release is so loose that it's unscrewing as I watch it! I never tightened it enough...and didn't figure this out until I'm 18 miles into a 30 mile ride
