This is a super cheap way to have an indestructible mud guard on your mountain bike.

Things you will need:
Cheap plastic cutting mat ($1 at Dollar Tree) http://goo.gl/rh3oYy
(4) zip-ties

Tools:
Pencil
Printer (to print out stencil 8.5 x 11)
Scissors
X-acto knife or hole punch

Step 1:

Print out stencil PDF on 8.5 x 11 (landscape) letter paper and cut it out with scissors. Don't forget to cut out zip tie holes.

I added a second version of the mud guard. I extended the guard past the forks to control even more of the muck and mire. Enjoy.

You will need to print out both pages line them up and tape them together and then cut out the whole stencil. (I did this because I figure most people only have letter size paper not 11x17 or the like.)
