Honestly, is there anyone who has made the transition to clipless without at least one "Artie Johnson"?
One of the funniest things I ever saw was this kid who used to come into my shop all the time. He was about 14 at the time, and always full of questions. He was always saving his money for the next bike related purchase, and one day he decided he wanted to go clipless.
So he saved up, and bought a set of pedals and shoes from me, and I helped him install and set up.
The next day, he pulled up right outside the door and did a perfect tip over right there, both feet still attached to the pedals.
I ended up giving that kid a job not long after that.
