first time last night. Absolutely errors by the book. Ride around a bit, think this is alright.. do a skid, tensions too low so front foot pops out!! Spinning, out of control crank (and me!) Followed a little while by a stop... start to move side ways and put foot down in normal manner... oh.. oh no.. clipped in I remember now... splat!
Was really good on the ride in today though. It gives more confidence in control, and is so different to riding in my beat up plimsolls which have holes in the soles (the bit rhymed - unintentional), cos they've worn so thin!!
