Hello Rick, About 6 weeks ago I was on a club ride descending a local hill (Shannon-Kennedy) behind a ride leader who went down. Miraculously he didn't break anything (although he told me the flesh part of his hand and hip are still tender). Afterward he said he heard a seemingly innocuous creaking. After he went down his wheel was disfigured with a rim bent all out of shape. Upon closer inspection there was a crack by his spokes that looked just like yours!
You never know when this might fail. You are blessed to discover it without a related accident! Cheers!
