The first day of going clipless, I wheeled out of the garage, made a short sprint down the street and back, pulled up into my driveway, and promptly did the ultra-low speed teeter over into an ivy bed. I got up, checked to see if anybody had noticed, then headed out as red as a beet on my neighborhood loop. About 30 minutes later and on my third time around the loop, I noticed my shadow on the road in front of me and something looking really funky about my helmet. I reached up to feel around and found three vines of ivy sticking out of the vents, one of which was about a foot long. I looked like a cross between a soldier trying to camoflage his helmet and a complete ****. Naturally I felt more like the latter.
And p.s....I've just about pissed myself laughing at some of these. Thanks to all you humble souls for sharing your human-ness.
