Inevitability

Well i've been going clipless for about 2 months with no problems until today when fate..... oh yes and maybe a bit of stupidity reared it's ugly head.
Cycling down a bike path doing about 25 kph really enjoying it and this dog comes tearing towards me out of the blue so i slam on the skids and try and unclip at the same time, bad move,the braking beat the unclipping and over i went, first time i've ever fallen off in 15 years!
So the result is , friendly dog, extremely apologetic owner, scuffed knee and hurt pride.
I think i learned today to unclip BEFORE hitting the skids, but it could have been worse.
