Its important to check your spikes and snug up the collars as part of
regular maintenance. Thats why I swapped my 48 spikes for disc wheel disc
brakes in 1980.
Glad you got home safely.

I ask because after returning from a 1200 mile trip to Rendezvous earlier
this summer I discovered a rear wheel with 15 consecutive broken spokes, a
pretty frightening percentage on a 60-spoke wheel. I bought the wheels new
and they have about 12,000 miles on them. Never raced or abused. Needless
to say, they are past the 3 year warranty period.
How common is the problem of broken spokes?
Thanks,
