Being new to clipless, I occasionally appear to be also clueless, especially while looking up from the ground. I've tipped over twice now. The first time was rather unremarkable but the second time I was with a group of social level riders who happened to be especially clownish.

At the end of a scheduled rest stop, we were slowly saddling up to leave. As I was somewhere in front, I yelled something idiotic like, "Get the lead out!" and promptly fell over. The sound was distinctly like that of a sack of wet, heavy lawn clippings being tossed out to the curb. There was another sound that was distinctly like laughter.

How not to fall? Un-clip, you fool, un-clip.
What to do when you're sure you are falling? Go, "AAARRRRGHHHH!"
My stategy for Technical Stuff and mud? Don't Go There.
