I just got clipless pedals today! Yay! I went out in the driveway in my street clothes to try them out. My feet didn't want to clip in so I just kept pedaling. Finally, one of them went in. I didn't have any problem getting it out and I didn't fall, thank goodness.

I'm getting ready to go for a ride and my plan is to just pedal. If I get clipped in right away, great. If not - surely some time on the 20 mile ride it will happen. I was grateful to realize they don't just automatically clip in and it wasn't too hard to get out. My fear was that every time my feet came near the pedals I'd be glued to the bike, unable to free myself.

Chanlluv, did you find that you rode a lot faster? I'm all excited about the promised improvements.
