I did it in my first week of riding fixed. I was slightly TPD'd (Two Pint Drunk) and pulled up to a bloke on a Brompton, trackstanded for a couple of seconds until I realised I was unable to get my feet out the straps and sloowwwwwly toppled over.
It was on a road leading into Oxford st and bloke on Brompton and a group of Japanese tourists gathered around to check if I was ok, really properly concerned about my well-being. I couldn't stop laughing at myself.
