Rear fender mount suggestions

I'm attaching a set of SKS fenders to my older cyclocross bike. All is
good except that the frame doesn't have a chainstay bridge so there
isn't anywhere to attach the front of the rear fender.

Any suggestions?

My winter bike's mudguard is attached at the seat tube 80mm
above the missing chainstay bridge.

1. http://www.lickbike.com/productpage.aspx?PART_NUM_SUB='3242-00'
around the seat tube.

2. Look for the proper size conduit clamp that will fit around the seat
tube. http://i5.quinbyhardware.com/1731256.jpg.

Cover it with black (or whatever color) heat shrink tubing as it is not
stainless.

I solved that problem on my Redline Conquest Tour bike. No chainstay
mount for the fender. So I wrapped 12 gauge electrical wire around
the chainstays, going between the two stays. Then wrapped a wire
through the hole in the fender and around the crossing wire. Held the
fender just fine for about 5 years now.
