Bikes: Speed Demon

This is kinda embrassing but, since we are all sharing, when I first got my clipless pedals, I wiped out like at least 3 times. The whole concept was new to me, and when I would come to a stop I could forget to clip out, and as the bike comes to 0 mph, I would realize that I was still clipped in and I would panic pulling upwards on the pedals instead of sideways and bam, down to the pavement I would go. Really not fun at all, kinda traumatic. I'm glad I have long passed that phase, I make it a habit of clipping out like 40seconds before I plan on stopping just so I dont forget, .
