Alright, so I read over the debate and my question is tangential to the original question of to falling at stops while clipped in. Suppose your fear of getting seriously road burned or run over inspires you to practice clipping in and out on your trainer. However, you are having ridiculous difficulty getting in and out of them on your trainer. I mean you practice two hours, try shifting the cleats, and the pedals are all the way to the "easy" release setting. I have Shimano A520s which are SPD and WR40s which are SPD-SL. Does anyone have any ideas what the heck I am doing wrong? I live in a hilly/mountainous area that gets a lot of rain and has heavy traffic...until you get outside of town, thus I am a little worried about getting proficient at clipping in and out before I hit the pavement. Thank you so much.
