First commute with clipless was uneventful. The ride home was a little more interesting. At the time, I worked on a major university campus. Leaving work, my path was suddenly crossed by a group of students. I grabbed the brakes and stopped, but forgot to unclip. Fortunately for me, there was a cute little coed for me to grab onto, and then fall on. Talk about embarrassing. The good news is that she was on the school cycling team and laughed about it, because she remembered the first time she went clipless. Been riding clipless for almost 6 years now, no other issues after that. Public humiliation can be a good teacher.
