Hmmmmmm, any problems clipping back in? Do you unclip and then feel as if you'll get stuck when you stop? When you say scary what do you envision could happen as you unclip? What's up?

Tell the nice ladies at Teamestrogen. we can help ;-)

I unclip my left foot ONLY, never both till the ride is over. I was told it's better to unclip the right for various reasons including safety. But I just can't do it.

I mean I CAN unclip my right or I'd still be attached to my bike right now <g> but at a stop, just can't and I'm right handed. Odd, huh? But you'll find your own way.

Sometimes you just have to practice over and over and...at first I found a very quiet road and just unclip from every concievable combination; feet at 12 and 6, 3 and 9, left, right or put the bike in a trainer and do that.
