I am a speedplay user and have been for over 10 years. Love the float and lack of knee pain. Yes I fell a few times in the beginning and then I learned to plan my stops. You have already gotten this message from quite a few others, but one more thing. Any of us are subject to a brain fart now and then. I am speaking of the two falls I had last summer. My first falls in years but falls none the less. One time I was really pushing it and very fatigued. Made a stop to catch my breath and I was in the wrong gear on a slight incline. Bad planning. I went to move and stood on the drive side and the bike only moved about 2 inches before I started to topple over to the right. DUH! The other time I was doing a 360 so I wouldn't have to clip out at a light. The light changed at the worst time. Cars came from out of nowhere and in my effort to quickly reduce the radius of my turn I went down in the middel of the road and did my turtle impression stopping all the cars. I laugh at these now because the pictures in my head are from the view point of the drivers and I think I must have looked hysterical. My whole point is that it is no big deal to have a DUH moment now and then and don't worry about what you look like upside down with your feet stuck to the pedals. You look rediculous but who cares?

Anyone else want to share their DUH moments to make Metric Man feel more comfortable?
