My favorite thing - starting off, headed uphill on a steep grade, over a painted crosswalk, after a rain. When you can do this and not fall, Grasshopper, you will have learned.

BTW, my fall came the first time I used mine, way back in 1994. I clicked in the left foot, pushed off, gently rolling down my driveway in the cul-de-sac, and tried to get my right cleat in, when suddenly something loomed up in my field of vision - the curb on the opposite side of the street. Down I went. Luckily, nobody saw me!
