It's true, some of us are a lot more cautious than others and have different challenges and can do different things. Just because I can't ride without my hands doesn't mean that others can't do it comfortably... and I am still practicing clipping and unclipping my SPD's because I do NOT want to fall down and hurt myself because of the stupid connection between my $200 shoes and my $100 pedals.
