ouch...

well went out today for the first time with my clip in shoes. I havent really busted since i started back up MB. Well that changed luck was not on my side. First bust come flying down a hill and get a little air well some how my back tire comes partialy off and locks up the back tire i go flying down. Next fall stoping and cant get my feet out,(did that three times. ). One question are higher quality pedles easer to get out of. my buddies bike i can get out of just fine mine is a pain. Im going to try some adjusting but for now im just sore. lol
