Coping with Toe Overlap

Ok, so I took my EG Bates track bike out for one of it's first rides, and had to squeeze through a narrow gates - one of the ones where you actually have to weave through it. It was tricky enough that it was somewhere I would normally coast but couldn't, but then I also had my toes hit the wheels both sides. Didn't come off, but it was unnerving.

I know a lot of you guys ride track bikes in places where you have to weave through narrow gaps - any advice for dealing with this?
