when I am in a jam, I usually pull both feet out of the clips at the same time. That burst of adrenalin has never failed me. But when things are calm, I always unclip the same foot. I unclip more than i have to, because i do not believe i have that many falls left (I have osteopenia), better to be prepared in tough places.

At least you weren't like me the other day. I went to reach for my water bottle and stupidly forgot that my left foot was still attached (I already took my right foot out) so I ended up losing my balance in the process and fell over at a 4 way intersection for all to see. I bet I got some laughs
But this was also my first time using the clipless pedals. The sad thing was that I wasn't even moving and that I already had one foot on the ground lol. I have bruises to remind me of my stupidity.
