That said, most people I see unclip the left foot at a stop. Which is weird to me here in the land of driving-on-the-right. With my right foot unclipped I can stand on the curb and stay in the saddle at stoplights.
Same here. Then I broke my right ankle. In retrospect, I should have learned to unclip equivalently from either side. Now I have to twist my right ankle inward toward the bike to unclip.
