Stupidest clipless question ever.How do you balance yourself & clip in while taking off? DH put new clipless peddles on my bike yesterday & I had a heck of a time figuring out which foot to clip in & when w/o falling over- before I even started. I finally figured I should clip in on lower peddle only, took off w/ my left foot not clipped & thought it wouldn't be hard to clip it in as I rode. However, it took forever to get that foot clipped in while slowly riding the neighborhood at -.25 mph. Surprisingly that is the slowest I have ever gone w/o falling.
Once I got clipped in, it was awesome & I had no problems with clipping free (but I didn't dare stop!) and the POWER!
