Default It Just Fell Off!

I looked over my WG and noticed the right side axle alignment bolt was missing. I look it over before every ride, so I know it fell out on my last trip, but WTF! The wheel ran out of alignment for about 50 miles and there was an odd wear color on the right side; no tread damage though.

Anyone else ever seen this?

"It Just Fell Off!" I was thinking you didn't have it wrapped for safety.

Wow, never heard of this one before. I wouldn't think it would have slipped out of alignment, unless the axle nut was loose, too. I'm gonna check mine more often.

Happened to me last year but on the left side. My axle nut was on tight though so no problems, just needed to replace the bolt.
