You are seriously endangering yourself by riding that front wheel, especially if you're loading up the front rack. Not only that, it's radially laced, so the spokes aren't giving a lot of support. Not trying to condescend or anything, just trying to keep you from getting hurt (or worse). Kind of surprised it hasn't already failed!!

definitely not the wisest decision to ride it w/ rack and all those missing spokes, but thankfully was a short-term thing - have since replaced it.
