Never Fallen!

I started riding clipless in the June. I read about everyone's experience here with clipless pedals and read a post by someone who had NEVER fallen. I decided to be just like that guy too. I guess, just like him, I'd be a liar if I say I have never fallen to date.

My favorite fall was the day I fell twice in about 30 minutes. The first time I got a little scraped up and hurt my hand. So I continued my ride one-handed for the most part to get back home. The second fall, about 30 minutes later, I broke the cleat on my shoe and then had to ride back to my LBS with one foot and one hand. Upon entering his store and seeing my hand, knees, shoe, etc. pronounced "you are bad for my business!"

I never fell while I was riding, but that starting and stopping thing...
