Rollers and momentum

[Catrin]

J One thing for certain is that when you do start using the clipless pedals, you will be upset with yourself that you didn't use the pedals from the get-go. Falling over is just falling over, and at most there is some road rash and a bruise or two. Falling over is unlikely to result in death or permanent injury.

Oh, I am pretty sure I won't be upset with myself about not switching sooner when I finally do so

I had some pretty spectacular falls on those 3 days when I tried last time - even gave myself a small concussion and needed a new helmet I will try again when I am confident that my muscle memory is solid - right now I am breaking myself of a couple of bad habits - once I am sure that I've been successful and my muscle memory is "corrected" then I will try again. I learned a rather, umm, creative way to stop my bike and until that is changed clipping in is just not possible.

I just wanted to say that it is so cool reading about your riding experiences, because you obviously think about things, decide to challenge yourself, and write well about it afterwards. Inspiring and fun

Glad that it isn't boring - I don't mind laughing at myself
