I set off from the lights delivering massive power and CRACK one foot is all over the place and I'm bobbing up and down like a yoyo, how I managed to keep myself upright I don't know.
Initially I think I've unclipped but once seated again I see my pedal is attached to my shoe still, the crank arm has snapped I slow and pull over the cyclist I had binned at the lights asks me if I'm ok, I'm a little shaken but have to get a cab really... of course the traffic is a fecker so I cycle the final mile one legged.. that was pretty tough.
phew
