I had a pretty bad fall today while riding clipped in. Both legs are really cut up from the concrete and large chainring. I also fell Monday but my car somewhat broke my fall. I'm a newbie at going clipless and don't want to give up just yet but I suspect I will fall again and re-injure the fresh wounds.

Do you have any advice for preventing falls and/or protecting my legs while learning to ride clipped-in? Carm
