Mine's still on.   Bloody ziptie ends are a bit sharp - should have made a better job of it.

Took mine off after a couple of days riding around with it. I'd actually forgotten it was there until someone asked what it was for!

Clipped off at my hotel after the finish. No interest to keep it on any longer. Kept for a souvenir of the memories; nothing more than that.

I usually keep it on until the new year.

Took mine off when I got home, before putting the mudguard sticker on (got two for both Audax bikes).

Took mine off on first ride back home, didn’t want people to think I’ve done a local Sportive!

took the frame badge off when back home, before doing a thorough wash/clean of the bike. i don't see the reason for keeping it any longer (possible conversation starter?..)

One of the controllers at whatever control put a sticker in my brevet, along with some lesflets, so I asked for another. They were just round paper PBP stickers (not embossed) but I’ve put them on my ‘guards.

The little red paper stickers were from Villaines, and say so in big letters. They're slightly too big to be mudguard stickers for those who favour a skinnier tyre.

There were plenty of them littering the ground in Rambouillet.
