Picking out Pedals!!

[Crankin]

Yes, practice unclipping with one foot. There is no need ever to unclip with both feet. In fact, if I tried t do that, I would crash, for sure. With practice, the motion of unclip, lean, put foot down is one motion and intuitive.
When I started using clipless pedals, I spent about 2 weeks riding around some neighborhoods with one foot clipped and the other leg dangling down, just resting on the pedal. Then, I felt silly when pedaling along like that, and started clipping in with both feet, but making sure I unclipped one foot way before I needed to.

Wow - I never thought to unclip with one foot! Will start doing tat now. I learn something new everyday on this forum!

I still unclip my right foot a bit early. I do think it is a signal to a driver behind me that I am getting ready to do SOMETHING a bit in advance, if they are paying attention. Perhaps they don't notice, but that has become my habit. I CAN unclip/stop quickly, I just prefer to do it that way.

I tend to do this, too...for the same reason.

I absolutely still do this if I'm riding with others (who may have unusual interpretations of stop signs), am on the road, or if I anticipate needing to stop otherwise. If I'm out on empty roads or the bike trail by myself, well, see my post above.
