I'd be a little worried about the zip tie affecting the operation of the
front brake.  Mike has the right idea - If you can get your hands on the
Sheldon Nut, it drastically simplifies on/off of fenders and elminates brake
adjustments.

Also, that thing he said about fenders=sunshine.... ;^)

And, while the  fenders on brevets are really courteous to those who ride
with you.  Unfendered riders on misty/rainy days are genuinely unpopular in
groups.

Good luck and have FUN!
