This happened to me once. On the slow crashes, I was able to get my feet out but in a fast crash, I definitely almost hurt my legs because my feet tried to carry the bike with me. One of the reasons I switched back to flats.
I started with flats, ended up with a ton of shin scrapes because I kept slipping pedals even with good shoes and good pedals. I rode clipless for 2 months and it wasn't for me so I switched back to flats. Now I can keep my feet on the pedals much easier because I was forced into the right position.
Ultimately it's all personal choice, I like what Jeff Kendall-Weed said about reducing the consequences of mistakes by switching to flats.
They probably still get the engagement boost by putting their replies at the top. This is insidious. I've been blocking most blue checks but this might make Twitter unusable.
I love it. I made an account just to say this, I've been lurking on lemmy for a couple weeks. Thank you very much Ryan and ruud.
