Congrats Mimi and good luck! I've had clipless pedals since last July but I still don't use them consistently. I was doing really well, confident, remembering to clip out etc but my bike was new and the derailleur wasn't set up right. I was riding up a fairly steep hill and then chain fell off. I was going too slow to clip out and down I went. Now I am terrified of hills even thoguh I haven't thrown the chain in months. I now ride with one foot clipped in all the time and the other half and half... I am determined to get over that this year.
