Several times when I first started riding with them (about a year ago) and had a lot of gear on my bike for commuting (positioning wasn't right making the bike top heavy) I stopped at a sign or in a left turn lane and the bike went the opposite way from the way I was standing. I think every time I was able to get my up foot unclipped and managed to stay standing while the bike went down, but I have a couple of nice scars on the insides of my thighs from those incidents.

Oh and holy resurrected thread batman.
