Bearings keep loosening up

Finally riding a big boys bike
Hi all. Has anybody set the bearings snug so there is no play only to find they loosen up after around 10 miles of riding?
 
Might want to show us the bike and which bearings you are talking about. V/r Shawn
 
The head and front wheel bearings on the western flyer and the head and crank bearings on the Iver Johonson.

I've had the problem with fork bearings, usually from the fork head tube being bent.
 
Missing the keyed lock washers, nuts, bad/worn cups, ball bearings, races and or cones.
