Biking to work the other day made me realize how much more efficient I'd be if I got clipless pedals, so I did. Practiced in my apt building's garage clipping in and out, and while perched up against a wall, promptly fell over. It really was like slow-mo! I just kept telling myself to relax and not put out my hand to brace me as I fell. Then laid there on the concrete for a bit and got up and practiced some more. Can't wait to give it a real go tomorrow. Only injury was a very slightly skinned elbow.
I got Candy pedals (forget the manufacturer) and Specialized Tahoe shoes. Very easy to get in and out of, as long as I'm not panicking!!
