How can your feet touch the ground when you are sitting on the saddle? Even when I'm riding in my tennies and not clipped in (which I do every day to go to work), my toes barely touch the ground. That doesn't seem like it would be a very stable way to stop.

Maybe you should practice coasting to a stop while standing with your foot of choice unclipped. As you stop, put that foot down, all the way on the ground. Lean your bike, every so slightly towards the foot you're going to put down.


Good luck,
