Right there with ya buddy,
About 2 weeks ago my wife decided she just had to have clipless pedals. Within 2 minutes of putting them on the bike, and just practicing getting in and out in the front yard, she fell and broke her elbow. She was pretty much standing still when she fell the short distance. It turned out to be a very minor break, and she is doing much better now, but she is still having trouble doing basic things that she has to do to take care of our 2 kids. I still feel really bad about not being smart enough to put her bike on the trainer in the house and let her practice before actually taking the bike outside.
