Ha! I just had my first clipless fall this morning. I managed to get used to clipless pedals in my former life without a fall- so I thought I would be fine... but...
I was riding out of my parking garage this morning, one-handed to scan my card to open the gate. Well, the gate didn't open. Evidentally I needed the weight of a car. So I thought I would try and squeeze between the concrete wall and the end of the gate. I realized I wouldn't fit when I was about 2 inches from the gate and then fell right over. I then proceeded to push my bike under the gate to get out for my ride.
Tomorrow I'll just take my bike up the elevator and push it out the front door.
(Edit: This all happened over a length of about 15 feet- so I didn't have much time to react. I slowed down for the gate to open. I just didn't expect to have to stop.)
