I always wanted to try clips on my local DH tracks. I don't have problem being clipped in since I've ridden both a fixie and a road bike with toeastraps and feel pretty confident with them and as far as I understand clips are much easier to master than toestraps
haha first time I rode in them I went out on the street, came to a stoplight and picked my foot off the pedal- obviously nothing happened. there was a second of hesitation, then I realized, "oh f*ck" and fell right over into the street.
