Bikes: Diamondback Clarity II frame homebuilt.

I believe that it was about a year ago that the members of this forum conspired to name "Club Tombay" Stapfam came forward with the name used in Europe "Le Toumbeur" or "The Fallen". Tombay is the Anglesized version of the word for here.

The club is not to be taken seriously as it is merely a gathering place for the telling of stories about the 0 mph fall over due to forgetting that one is clipped in. (forgetting to unclip is the #1 cause of clippless pedal falls)

I seriously doubt that the stories told in this venue are chasing riders away from trying clipless pedals. If these funny stories (I have yet to hear one that involved serious injury other than to pride) are scaring riders away than they probably wouldn't have tried the pedals in the first place.
