Foot caught in fork.

Ever had your foot get stuck between the tire and the fork? Me neither till this morning. It was still dark, and i was at a stop sign. There was a car behind me and for some stupid reason i decided i was going to launch out of the intersection at warp speed.

Trouble is, i missed my left pedal with my clip and somehow my foot wedged in between the tire and the fork. It made a loud azz noise as the tire rubbed on my shoe. (My prostate also took a nice shot from the saddle nose.) My right foot was still clipped in and i was preparing to plant my head onto the roadway, when at the last second i turned the wheel to the right and my foot came out.

REally no worse for the wear although my ankle is slightly sore. Anyone else ever have this happen?
