the other day as i was pulling away from the lights crossing euston road i somehow managed to get the loop of spare strap caught round the saddle so as i went to stand on the pedals to pull away it sort of pulled me back down. i was riding fixed in front of a row of traffic so had to sort of "hunch-pedal" with my knees round my ears to the far side of the junction wher i could pull over and extricate myself. wasn't the most graceful of maneouvers.
