... Felt the bike tilting, and couldn't really do much as I was clipped in on that side. I just toppled over like a deformed dredel. Only skinned a knee, and landed squarely on my pride.
Gave some peds a good laugh...

Ay-yi-yi. That's why I'm afraid to try either the clipless or the cages. I'm not the most graceful of bipeds and at my age I've noticed I don't exactly spring back up from a fall anymore. Call me a coward, but thus far this coward's epidermis is intact.
